The human heart has hidden treasures In secret kept in silence sealed The thoughts the hopes the dreams the pleasures Whose charms were broken if revealed.

My dreams were all my own I accounted for them to nobody they were my refuge when annoyed - my dearest pleasure when free.

The first couple of days on the detox diet aren't pleasant.

I refuse to spend my life worrying about what I eat. There is no pleasure worth forgoing just for an extra three years in the geriatric ward.

Color does not add a pleasant quality to design - it reinforces it.

Sinful and forbidden pleasures are like poisoned bread they may satisfy appetite for the moment but there is death in them at the end.

Nothing endears so much a friend as sorrow for his death. The pleasure of his company has not so powerful an influence.

A tragedy need not have blood and death it's enough that it all be filled with that majestic sadness that is the pleasure of tragedy.

It seems to me that if you or I must choose between two courses of thought or action we should remember our dying and try so to live that our death brings no pleasure on the world.

If we have been pleased with life we should not be displeased with death since it comes from the hand of the same master.

Life is pleasant. Death is peaceful. It's the transition that's troublesome.

I have never killed a man but I have read many obituaries with great pleasure.

I think feminism's a bit misinterpreted. It was about casting off all gender roles. There's nothing wrong with a man holding a door open for a girl. But we sort of threw away all the rules so everybody's confused. And dating becomes a sloppy uncomfortable unpleasant thing.

When I realized I was having trouble reading I was too embarrassed to ask for help. Some teachers believed in me but I just wasn't focused on school - I was into the music and trying to please my dad.

I went and took golf lessons so Dad would let me play with him. I was just terrible... but I was able to have a wonderful time just walking around with Dad. I can see the real pleasure of that game.

I would never have done what I'd done if I'd considered my father as somebody I wanted to please.

It is impossible to please all the world and one's father.

This is what customers pay us for - to sweat all these details so it's easy and pleasant for them to use our computers. We're supposed to be really good at this. That doesn't mean we don't listen to customers but it's hard for them to tell you what they want when they've never seen anything remotely like it.

No pleasure has any savor for me without communication.

I think if there's something one needs to change with oneself it doesn't have to happen in the New Year. You can do that any time you please - not that it's not a good inspirational tactic for the people that it works for.

A visit to a cinema is a little outing in itself. It breaks the monotony of an afternoon or evening it gives a change from the surroundings of home however pleasant.

The earth was made so various that the mind Of desultory man studious of change And pleased with novelty might be indulged.

The truth is that we can learn to condition our minds bodies and emotions to link pain or pleasure to whatever we choose. By changing what we link pain and pleasure to we will instantly change our behaviors.

I am invariably late for appointments - sometimes as much as two hours. I've tried to change my ways but the things that make me late are too strong and too pleasing.
