Happy Birthday to Anatole France!

* The average man does not know what to do with this life, yet wants another one which will last forever.

* A person is never happy except at the price of some ignorance.

* Chance is perhaps the pseudonym of God when he does not wish to sign his work.

* If the path be beautiful, let us not ask where it leads.

* Of all the ways of defining man, the worst is the one which makes him out to be a rational animal.

* What frightens us most in a madman is his sane conversation.
