Edith Wharton Quotes

"There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it""I don't know if I should care for a man who made life easy; I should want someone who made it interesting""Life is the only real counselor; wisdom unfiltered through personal experience does not become a part of the moral tissues""The only way not to think about money is to have a great deal of it""Beware of monotony; it's the mother of all the deadly sins""In spite of illness, in spite even of the arch-enemy sorrow, one can remain alive long past the usual date of disintegration if one is unafraid of change, insatiable in intellectual curiosity, interested in big things, and happy in small ways"
