Interest works night and day in fair weather and in foul. It gnaws at a man's substance with invisible teeth.

It is not work that kills men; it is worry. Worry is rust upon the blade.

Work is not a curse, but drudgery is.

Let parents who hate their offspring rear them to hate labor, and to inherit riches; and before long they will be stung by every vice, racked by its poison, and damned by its penalty.

No man ever learned to love God with all his heart, and his neighbour as himself, in a day.

Every fresh act of benevolence is the herald of deeper satisfaction; every charitable act a stepping-stone towards heaven.
