“It is only when the mind and character slumber that the dress can be seen.”

Make the most of yourself, for that is all there is of you.

If the stars should appear but one night every thousand years how man would marvel and adore.

Most of the shadows of life are caused by standing in our own sunshine.

Truth, and goodness, and beauty are but different faces of the same all.

We aim above the mark to hit the mark.

We must be as courteous to a man as we are to a picture, which we are willing to give the advantage of a good light.

Our distrust is very expensive.

Do not follow where the path may lead. Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.
