As a man lives and thinks, so he will write.

Honesty of thought and speech and written word is a jewel, and they who curb prejudice and seek honorably to know and speak the truth are the only builders of a better life.

Memory heaps dead leaves on corpse-like deeds, from under which they do but vaguely offend the sense.

There are moments when Nature reveals the passion hidden beneath the careless calm of her ordinary moods-violent spring flashing white on almond-blossom through the purple clouds; a snowy, moonlit peak, with its single star, soaring up to the passionate blue; or against the flames of sunset, an old yew-tree standing dark guardian of some fiery secret.

Beginnings are always messy.

I drink the wine of aspiration and the drug of illusion. Thus I am never dull.

It`s always worth while before you do anything to consider whether it`s going to hurt another person more than is absolutely necessary.
