"I think in general I just really enjoy reading unserious stuff about people talking about each other and behind each others' backs and forming romantic affiliations." — Sep 05, 2026 09:11AM

“If a woman is fair and amiable, she is praised for both qualities, but especially the former, by the bulk of mankind: if, on the other hand, she is disagreeable in person and character, her plainness is commonly inveighed against as her greatest crime, because, to common observers, it gives the greatest offence; while, if she is plain and good, provided she is a person of retired manners and secluded life, no one ever knows of her goodness, except her immediate connections”

“Better to have flamed in the darkness, to have inspired others, to have lived, than to have sat in the darkness, cursing the people who borrowed, but did not return, your candle.”

“قال لي أحد المعزين: "آخر الأحزان ياسيدنا". ما أسخف هذه العبارة. لا هي أمنية فتتحقق و لا دعاء فيستجاب. كلما رددها أحدهم سمعها الناس هكذا:"آخر الأحزان" و سمعتها أنا هكذا:"أتمنى لك الموت عاجلاً قبل أن يصيبك الحزن التالي". من نحن بلا أحزان؟ كيف نأمن على أنفسنا بدونها ألا نتيه في أودية الغفلة مثل شياهٍ ضالة؟”

“...is it likely my life all through will be so clouded? Is it not possible that God may hear my prayers, disperse these gloomy shadows, and grant me some beams of heaven’s sunshine yet? Will He entirely deny to me those blessings which are so freely given to others, who neither ask them nor acknowledge them when received? May I not still hope and trust?”
