| Our lives are not in the lap of the gods, but in the lap of our cooks. |
| If you can spend a perfectly useless afternoon in a perfectly useless manner, you have learned how to live. |
| Besides the noble art of getting things done, there is a nobler art of leaving things undoneThe wisdom of life consists in the elimination of nonessentials. |
| This I conceive to be the chemical function of humor to change the character of our thought. |
| 'I have done my best.' That is about all the philosophy of living one needs. |
