Where the
heart lies, let the brain lie also.
-- Robert Browning
1812-1889, British Poet
It is as
healthy to enjoy sentiment as to enjoy jam.
-- Gilbert K. Chesterton
1874-1936, British Author
By starving
emotions we become humorless, rigid and stereotyped; by
repressing them we become literal, reformatory and
holier-than-thou; encouraged, they perfume life;
discouraged, they poison it.
-- Joseph Collins
It is very
difficult to be wholly joyous or wholly sad on this earth.
The comic, when it is human, soon takes upon itself a face
of pain; and some of our grieves... have their source in
weaknesses which must be recognized with smiling compassion
as the common inheritance of us all.
-- Joseph Conrad
1857-1924, Polish-born
British Novelist
