Next to faith in God, is faith in labor.

He that shrinks from the grave with too great a dread, has an invisible fear behind him pushing him into it.

The beauty seen is partly in him who sees it.

Love's sweetest meanings are unspoken; the full heart knows no rhetoric of words.

The knowledge beyond all other knowledge is the knowledge how to excuse.

Fame - a few words upon a tombstone, and the truth of those not to be depended on.

Alas, the transports beauty can inspire!
