Human life runs its course in the metamorphosis between receiving and giving.

Age does not make us childish, as some say; it finds us true children.

Wouldst thou ever roam abroad? See, what is good lies by thy side. Only learn to catch happiness, for happiness is ever by you.

We usually lose today, because there has been a yesterday, and tomorrow is coming.

Our modern wars make many unhappy while they last and none happy when they are over.

Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough; we must do.

There is nothing in which people more betray their character than in what they laugh at.
