My share of the work may be limited, but the fact that it is work makes it precious.

One's life story cannot be told with complete veracity. A true autobiography would have to be written in states of mind, emotions, heartbeats, smiles and tears; not in months and years, or physical events. Life is marked off on the soul by feelings, not by dates.

I don't give a damn about semi-radicals!

For three things I thank God every day of my life: thanks that he has vouchsafed me knowledge of his works; deep thanks that he has set in my darkness the lamp of faith; deep, deepest thanks that I have another life to look forward to--a life joyous with light and flowers and heavenly song.

What do I consider a teacher should be? One who breathes life into knowledge so that it takes new form in progress and civilization.

Hold out your hands to feel the luxury of the sunbeams.

I can not do everything, but I can do something. I must not fail to do the something that I can do.
