“The saddest thing about love is that not only that it cannot last forever, but that heartbreak is soon forgotten.”
""It’s a shame that the only thing a man can do for eight hours a day is work. He can’t eat for eight hours; he can’t drink for eight hours; he can’t make love for eight hours. The only thing a man can do for eight hours is work.""
