The paradise of the rich is made out of the hell of the poor.[C’est de l’enfer des pauvres qu’est fait le paradis des riches.]
The true paradises are the paradises that we have lost.[Les vrais paradis sont les paradis qu’on a perdus.]
The road to this paradise was not as comfortable and alluring as the road to the religious paradise; but it has proved itself as trustworthy, and I have never regretted having chosen it.
It is better to have your head in the clouds, and know where you are, if indeed you cannot get it above them, than to breathe the clearer atmosphere below them, and think that you are in paradise.
If people stopped to consider even a quarter of what they say, this world would be paradise.
I have always imagined that Paradise will be a kind of library.
