Hate to sound sleazy,
but tease me,
I don't want it if it's that easy

It's not supposed to be easy. Anyone who finds it easy is stupid.

Don't wish it were easier. Wish you were better.

do not easily dislike, Sir; but then I do not easily like. And I never will marry any man, to whom I cannot be more than indifferent.

It has not been easy for me

Love does not
make me gentle or kind.

I hate American simplicity. I glory in the piling up of complications of every sort. If I could pronounce the name James in any different or more elaborate way I should be in favour of doing it.

I do not like hardness of heart, but neither do I like softness of head.

I am not in favor of imposing happiness on people. Everyone has a right to his bad wine, to his stupidity, and to his dirty fingernails.

I am not easy to love but I am well loved. I try to love well in return.

There's no such thing as simple. Simple is hard.

Nothing is easy. But who wants nothing?

Do not pray for an easy life. Pray for a difficult on with the strength to endure it.

I do not like work even when someone else is doing it.
