We can all be heroes in our virtues, in our homes, in our lives.

Style in painting is the same as in writing,-a power over materials, whether words or colors.

The mind paints before the brush.

There is no heart without remorse, no life without some misfortune, no one but what is something stained with sin.

The press should be the voice of the people, not of party.

It is a sure sign of a mind not balanced as it ought to be, when it is insensible to the pleasures of the domestic hearth, and to the little joys and endearments of a family.

We can all be heroes in our virtues, in our homes, in our lives.
