Take care to sell your horse before he dies. The art of life is passing losses on.

The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky from the earth from a scrap of paper from a passing shape from a spider's web.

Always give a word or sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend or even a stranger if in a lonely place.

Another principle is the deepest affections of our hearts gather around some human form in which are incarnated the living thoughts and ideas of the passing age.

A major advantage of age is learning to accept people without passing judgment.

In passing we should note this curious mark of our own age: the only absolute allowed is the absolute insistence that there is no absolute.
