Fair words gladden so many a heart.
As the heart is, so is love to the heart. It partakes of its strength or weakness, its health or disease.
Ambition is so powerful a passion in the human breast, that however high we reach we are never satisfied.
Know how sublime a thing it is to suffer and be strong.
The air of summer was sweeter than wine.
The surest pledge of a deathless name Is the silent homage of thoughts unspoken.
