Age does not protect you from love. But love, to some extent, protects you from age.
-Anaïs Nin
After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.
-Aldous Huxley
Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful.

-Marcel Pagnol
