A word at the right time and place

Appreciation of trifles

Carpe diem

Child is naturally egotistical

Child cannot distinguish between what is amusing and what is sad

Coach moved by electricity

Confucius's command not to love our fellow-men but to respect

Deserve the gratitude of my people, though it should be denied

Do thoroughly whatever they do at all

Full as an egg

Half-comprehended catchwords serve as a banner

Hanging the last king with the guts of the last priest

Hollow of the hand, Diogenes's drinking-cup

How effective a consolation man possesses in gratitude

I approve of such foolhardiness

I plead with voice and pen in behalf of fairy tales

Life is valued so much less by the young

Life is the fairest fairy tale (Anderson)

Loved himself too much to give his whole affection to any one

Men studying for their own benefit, not the teacher's

Nobody was allowed to be perfectly idle

Phrase and idea "philosophy of religion" as an absurdity

Readers often like best what is most incredible

Required courage to be cowardly

Scorned the censure of the people, he never lost sight of it

Smell most powerful of all the senses in awakening memory

The carp served on Christmas eve in every Berlin family

To be happy, one must forget what cannot be altered

Unjust to injure and rob the child for the benefit of the man

What father does not find something to admire in his child

When you want to strike me again, mother, please take off
