Alexander Smith

Quotes:

"We are never happy; we can only remember that we were so once."

"A man gazing on the stars is proverbially at the mercy of the puddles in the road."

"I go into my library, and all history unrolls before me. I breathe the morning air of the world while the scent of Eden's roses yet lingered in it, while it vibrated only to the world's first brood of nightingales, and to the laugh of Eve. I see the pyramids building; I hear the shoutings of the armies of Alexander."

"Love is but the discovery of ourselves in others, and the delight in the recognition."
