Whoever strenuously endeavors, him we can rescue.

The important thing in life is to have a great aim, and the determination to attain it.

Age merely shows what children we remain.

One says a lot in vain, refusing; The other mainly hears the "No."

Beware of wishing for anything in youth, because you will get it in middle age.

One should not wish anyone disagreeable conditions of life; but for him who is involved in them by chance, they are touchstones of characters and of the most decisive value to man.

The greater the knowledge, the greater the doubt.
