horse men two
Splendid cheeses they were, ripe and mellow, and with a two hundred horse-power scent about them that might have been warranted to carry three miles, and knock a man over at two hundred yards.

A good woman's arms round a man's neck is a lifebelt thrown out to him from heaven.
love beautiful storm
Nothing is more beautiful than the love that has weathered the storms of life. The love of the young for the young, that is the beginning of life. But the love of the old for the old, that is the beginning of things longer.
love inspirational life
Let your boat of life be light, packed with only what you need - a homely home and simple pleasures, one or two friends, worth the name, someone to love and someone to love you, a cat, a dog, and a pipe or two, enough to eat and enough to wear, and a little more than enough to drink; for thirst is a dangerous thing.
sleep men priceless
It seems to me so shocking to see the precious hours of a man's life - the priceless moments that will never come back to him again - being wasted in a mere brutish sleep.
funny stupid silly
It is so pleasant to come across people more stupid than ourselves. We love them at once for being so.
funny truth liars
It is always the best policy to speak the truth, unless, of course, you are an exceptionally good liar.
success work stress
It is impossible to enjoy idling thoroughly unless one has plenty of work to do.
wine men glasses
A glass of wine often makes me a better man than hearing a sermon.
funny work humorous
I like work; it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours.
dream men sea
There is no more thrilling sensation I know of than sailing. It comes as near to flying as man has got to yet - except in dreams.
land clouds rainbow
There may be a better land where bicycle saddles are made of rainbow, stuffed with cloud; in this world the simplest thing is to get used to something hard.
funny dog silly
They [dogs] never talk about themselves but listen to you while you talk about yourself, and keep up an appearance of being interested in the conversation.
love love-is love-is-like
Love is like the measles; we all have to go through it.
