As soon as you trust yourself, you will know how to live.

But the valid issue is the extent to which man knows how to form and master the material at his command.

People will allow their faults to be shown them; they will let themselves be punished for them; they will patiently endure many things because of them; they only become impatient when they have to lay them aside.

Great thoughts and a pure heart, that is what we should ask from God.

While man's desires and aspirations stir he cannot choose but err.

Everything has been thought of before, but the problem is to think of it again.

Out of moderation a pure happiness springs.
