It embarrasses me to think of all those years I was buying silk suits and alligator shoes that were hurting my feet; cars that I just parked, and the dust would just build up on them.

Gustave Flaubert

Sinclair Lewis

I did a lot of things that I regretted and I certainly paid for my mistakes.

Gilbert K. Chesterton

A monarchy conducted with infinite wisdom and infinite benevolence is the most perfect of all possible governments.
