You pay for everything


You pay for everything you get in this world. You get nothing for nothing. Little happiness – little pain. Big happiness – big price. Everything comes out even.


- Harold Robbins

Words


“Home was a place you lived in, love was a thing you didn’t fool yourself about…happiness was a term of hypocrisy used to bluff other people, a father was an individual who enjoyed his own existence, a husband was a man you lived with & kept going in spirits. As for sex, the last of the great words, it was just cocktail term for an excitement that bucked you up for a while, then left you more raggy than ever. Frayed! It was as if the very material you were made of cheap stuff, & was fraying out to nothing.”

D. H. Lawrence
