"Ours is an excessively conscious age. We know so much, we feel so little."
"Ours is essentially a tragic age, so we refuse to take it tragically."
"My whole working philosophy is that the only stable happiness for mankind is that it shall live married in blessed union to woman-kind - intimacy, physical and psychical between a man and his wife. I wish to add that my state of bliss is by no means perfect."
"So long as you don't feel life's paltry and a miserable business, the rest doesn't matter, happiness or unhappiness."
