The greater part of humanity is too much harassed and fatigued by the struggle with want, to rally itself for a new and sterner struggle with error.

Forgiveness is the divinest of victories.

To gain a crown by fighting is great, to reject it divine.

Virtue, though clothed in a beggar's garb, commands respect.

Nothing leads to good that is not natural.

Man is never so authentically himself as when at play.

Many a crown shines spotless now that yet was deeply sullied in the winning.
