My friend, when a man has anything to tell in this world, the difficulty is not to make him tell it, but to prevent him from telling it too often.

After all, the wrong road always leads somewhere.

But to admire a strong person and to live under that strong person’s thumb are two different things.

The English are not a very spiritual people, so they invented cricket to give them some idea of eternity.

It is the first duty of every man not to be poor.

You cannot have power for good without having power for evil too. Even mother's milk nourishes murderers as well as heroes.

I can think of no other edifice constructed by man as altruistic as a lighthouse. They were built only to serve.
