“There were two classes of charitable people: one, the people who did a little and made a great deal of noise; the other, the people who did a great deal and made no noise at all.”
“Two kinds of people are good at foreseeing danger: those who have learned at their own expense, and the clever people who learn a great deal at the expense of others.”
“There are some people who see a great deal and some who see very little in the same things.”
“People who were too outgoing made her suspicious. She couldn't help but presume that all the loud noise was created to hide quiet lies.”
“People who have experienced nothing love to tell stories while people who have experienced a great deal suddenly have no stories to tell at all.”
“There is often a great deal more of the past in the future than there was in the past itself at the time... one learns little by little that a thing is not over because it is not happening with noise and shape or outward sign.”
