The life of a man consists not in seeing visions and in dreaming dreams, but in active charity and in willing service.

My soul is full of longing for the secret of the sea, and the heart of the great ocean sends a thrilling pulse through me.

Love gives itself; it is not bought.

The Nile, forever new and old, Among the living and the dead, Its mighty, mystic stream has rolled.

And all the air is filled with pleasant noise of waters

We are all architects of faith, ever living in these walls of time.

We judge ourselves by what we feel capable of doing, while others judge us by what we have already done.
