Most people get a fair amount of fun out of their lives, but on balance life is suffering, and only the very young or the very foolish imagine otherwise.
Each generation imagines itself to be more intelligent than the one that went before it, and wiser than the one that comes after it.
We have now sunk to a depth at which restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men.
The very concept of objective truth is fading out of the world. Lies will pass into history.

Joyce is a poet and also an elephantine pedant.
Four legs good, two legs bad.

Part of the reason for the ugliness of adults, in a childs eyes, is that the child is usually looking upwards, and few faces are at their best when seen from below.
Society has always to demand a little more from human beings than it will get in practice.
When it comes to the pinch, human beings are heroic.
To an ordinary human being, love means nothing if it does not mean loving some people more than others.
