Сергей Веденьё - Chance thoughts. Book 2




*


If lack of a woman leads to sorrow, then lack of sorrow leads to a woman.


The only thing in this life that is really compelling is endless change for the better.


*


In most cases, a woman leaves a man not because he is bad, but because she is better.


*


Someone who only wants to be no worse than other people doesn't become better.


*


You can only make others happy if you are happy yourself.


*


Only the best people refuse good in favour of the best.


One hides, another isn't searching.


*


If you don’t assign value to what you don't have, then you will not have anything valueless.


*


We must be ready for luck.


*


We desire people with desires, and daydream about people with daydreams.


*


Happiness can't exist without a sense of humour.


*


And, secondly, I like women for their ability to tell both lies and the truth at the same time.


*


There are some people who are given and taken. And there are people who give and take.


*


The ideal woman is beautiful, wicked and devoted.


*


I haven’t always received, but I've never been had.


*


First, one tries to excuse what he hasn't done. Then he tries to amend what has happened.


*


If you can see your shadow, then you’ve turned your back on the sun.


*


Some love stories finish before the acquaintance is made.


*


Mostly we don’t miss the things that happened, but the feelings we had.


A good past is born in a good future.


*


The one who doesn't strive for anything will eventually have to pursue something.


*


If all world religions talk about love for life, then why don’t we make love our religion?


*


If your smile doesn't tell of your happiness, then it tells of your strength.


*


What you are ready for will always be somewhere in the faraway past.


*


There are situations when you know what to do, but it's better to ask. But sometimes, you don't know – and it's better not to ask.


*


When you love, you want to believe. When you believe, you want to love.


*


If things aren’t going as you’d like them to, then you’re not doing what you should.


*


Getting rid of past experiences is much harder that finding new ones.


*


Every cigarette has the potential to be the last.


*


The secret of an illusionist is in making you miss something. The secret of a magician is in making you see something.


*


Humanity can live only for its culture. All other goals will inevitably lead to disaster.


*


It is better not to switch on what can’t be switched off.


*


Passion is the only law of success.


*


Intuition is when you know what the answer is to a question that you haven't yet asked.


*


Bad people do not bring good news.


*


People put on an honest face in vain. Lies can usually be detected aurally.


*


Life is as far from perfection as you are from life.


*


We learn useful lessons not when something bad happens, but when something good comes.


A sense of humour is a good sign of virtue and a resilient cover for shortcomings.


*


The truth is not what women and men say to each other. The truth is what they will never say.
