The one thing finished in this hasty world.
As one lamp lights another, nor grows less,So nobleness enkindleth nobleness.

Enthusiasm begets enthusiasm, eloquence produces conviction for the moment; but it is only by truth to Nature and the everlasting institutions of mankind that those abiding influences are won that enlarge from generation to generation.
If youth be a defect, it is one that we outgrow only too soon.
One thorn of experience is worth a whole wilderness of warning.
