Real nobility is based on scorn, courage, and profound indifference.
To correct a natural indifference I was placed half-way between misery and the sun. Misery kept me from believing that all was well under the sun, and the sun taught me that history wasn't everything.
I have no consistency, except in politics; and that probably arises from my indifference to the subject altogether.
Nothing is so fatal to religion as indifference.
Love cannot endure indifference. It needs to be wanted. Like a lamp, it needs to be fed out of the oil of another's heart, or its flame burns low.
