More from Henry Brooks Adams
- Morality is a private and costly luxury.
- One friend in a lifetime is much, two are many, three are hardly possible. Friendship needs a certain parallelism of life, a community of thought, a rivalry of aim.
- The woman who is known only through a man is known wrong.
- We combat obstacles in order to get repose, and, when got, the repose is insupportable.
- 24 beers in a case, 24 hours in a day, coincedence? I think not.
- 640K ought to be enough for anybody.
