Because when you saw me spitting blood you took my hand; because you wept; because you are the only human being who has ever pitied me.

When he died I cried more than when my mother died. It is true that for twelve years of her life she used to beat me. Well, I loved you all at once, as much as my dog. If men knew what they can have for a tear, they would be better loved and we should be less ruinous to them."
"How well I know you by your deeds and how invariably you succeed in living down to what one expects of you!"
