A Bachelor, In My Opinion, Is Only

Directly After God In Heaven Comes A Papa.

Music, In Even The Most Terrible Situations, Must Never Offend The Ear But Always Remain A Source Of Pleasure.

Neither Rejoice Nor Lament Prematurely; For Whatever May Happen, All Will Be Well If We Only Have Health; For Happiness Exists--merely In The Imagination.

The Taste Of Death Is Upon My Lips. I Feel Something That Is Not Of This Earth.

I Pay No Attention Whatever To Anybody's Praise Or Blame. I Simply Follow My Own Feelings.
