“As man sows, so shall he reap. In works of fiction, such men are sometimes converted. More often, in real life, they do not change their natures until they are converted into dust.”

“The workings of the human heart are the profoundest mystery of the universe. One moment they make us despair of our kind, and the next we see in them the reflection of the divine image.”
― Charles W. Chesnutt

“When it is said that it was done to please a woman, there ought perhaps to be enough to explain anything; for what a man will not do to please a woman is yet to be discovered.”
