I am a majority of one.

However mean your life is, meet it and live it.

Since all things are good, men fail at last to distinguish which is the bane and which the antidote.

I look upon England today as an old gentleman who is travelling with a great deal of baggage, trumpery which has accumulated fromlong housekeeping, which he has not the courage to burn.

O how I laugh when I think of my vague indefinite riches. No run on my bank can drain it, for my wealth is not possession but enjoyment.

Every path but your own is the path of fate. Keep on your own track, then.

It's only by forgetting yourself that you draw near to God.
