Maurice Maeterlinck
» Chance » “Many a happiness in life, as many a disaster, can be due to chance, but the peace within us can never be governed by chance.”
» Complacency » “They believe that nothing will happen because they have closed their doors.”
» Happiness » “Remember that happiness is as contagious as gloom. It should be the first duty of those who are happy to let others know of their gladness.”
» Loneliness » “We are never the same with others as when we are alone. We are different, even when we are in the dark with them.”
» Reason » “Our reason may prove what it will: our reason is only a feeble ray that has issued from Nature.”
» Wisdom » “It is not from reason that justice springs, but goodness is born of wisdom.”
