I wouldn't go across the street to see a Bouguereau. His pictures look false; he does not get the truth of what he wishes to represent. His light is not outdoor light; his works are waxy and artificial. They are extremely near being frauds.

Man's best friend is one who wishes well to the object of his wish for his sake, even if no one is to know of it.

The lesson of the Cold War is that against nuclear weapons, only nuclear weapons can hold the peace.
