When credulity comes from the heart it does no harm to the intellect.

Some superior minds are unrecognized because there is no standard by which to weigh them.

Truth takes the stamp of the souls it enters. It is rigorous and rough in arid souls, but tempers and softens itself in loving natures.

Never cut what you can untie.

Virtue is the health of the soul. It gives a flavor to the smallest leaves of life.

Remorse is the punishment of crime; repentance, its expiation. The former appertains to a tormented conscience; the latter to a soul changed for the better.

There are some heads which have no windows, and the day can never strike from above; nothing enters from heavenard.
