A gentleman is calm and spacious: the vulgar are always fretting.
Justice for All in the World
When prosperity comes, do not use all of it.
The expectations of life depend upon diligence; the mechanic that would perfect his work must first sharpen his tools.
Rate the task above the prize; will not the mind be raised? Fight thine own faults, not the faults of others; will not evil be mended?
The higher type of man clings to virtue, the lower type of man clings to material comfort. The higher type of man cherishes justice, the lower type of man cherishes the hope of favors to be received.
