Trust to God to weave your thread into the great web, though the pattern shows it not yet.

I learned that he that will be a hero will barely be a man; that he that will be nothing but a doer of his work is sure of his manhood.

God left the world unfinished for man to work his skill upon. He left the electricity still in the cloud, the oil still in the earth.

Will is not unfrequently weakness.

We die daily. Happy those who daily come to life as well.

It is not the cares of today, but the cares of tomorrow, that weigh a man down.

No man can make haste to be rich without going against the will of God, in which case it is the one frightful thing to be successful.
