“Alas! An ill fate is on me this day, and all that I do goes amiss!”
“We create our fate every day . . . most of the ills we suffer from are directly traceable to our own behavior.”
“I am wholly yours - you are everything to me; we will sustain each other in all the ills of life it may please fate to inflict upon us; you will soothe my troubles; I will comfort you in yours.”
“Trust is the delusion of truth with ill fated consequences”
“We ought to live each day as though it were our last day here below. But if I did, alas, I know it would have killed me long ago.”
“I, answering in the end, began: 'Alas,how many yearning thoughts, what great desire,have lead them through such sorrow to their fate?”
