Book: Fiesta (the sun also rises)

Women are all the same. When you feel a flask of wine or a pint of beer, then you're a lost man.

I never make fun of people. Making fun of people - so to make enemies.

- It's funny, ' I said. - It's very funny. And to be in love too terribly funny.
- Do you think? - Her eyes again became flat.
Not in the sense of funny. This is to some extent a pleasant feeling.
"No," she said. I think it's a living hell.
It's good to be together.
- No. In my opinion, nothing good.
- Don't you want to see me?
- I can't see.

Just exchange of values. Something inferior, and in return receive something else. Or work for anything. One way or another for at least partially good pay. Much of what I was paying, like me, and I was having a good time. Paid either knowledge or experience, or risk, or money. To use life is nothing like the ability to get something equivalent to spent money and be conscious of that. And get full price for your money. Our world is a solid firm.

Women are so good at making friends. Terribly well. First of all, you need to be in love with a woman, to have a reliable basis for friendship.

Don't be downhearted. Never be downhearted. The secret of my success. Never fall spirit. Never lose courage in people.
