It is a very good world for the purposes for which it was built; and that is all anything is good for.
Fear secretes acids; but love and trust are sweet juices.
Never forget what a person says to you when they are angry.
In friendship your heart is like a bell struck every time your friend is in trouble.
Sharp men, like sharp needles, break easy, though they pierce quick.
Genius unexerted is no more genius than a bushel of acorns is a forest of oaks.
