A man's foibles are what makes him lovable.

Wealth and speed are what the world admires, what each pursues. Railways, express mails, steamships and every possible facility for communications are the achievement in which the civilized world view and revels, only to languish in mediocrity by that very fact. Indeed, the effect of this diffusion is to spread the culture of the mediocre.

Every step of life shows much caution is required.

The person who in shaky times also wavers only increases the evil, but the person of firm decision fashions the universe.

Don't judge anyone harshly until you yourself have been through his experiences

All truths are old, and all that we have to do is recognize and utter them anew.

Man is made by his belief. As he believes, so he is.
