There never yet was a mother who taught her child to be an infidel.

Everyone who does the best he can is a hero.

Men of genius are like eagles, they live on what they kill, while men of talents are like crows, they live on what has been killed for them.

A slander is like a hornet; if you cannot kill it dead at the first blow, better not to strike at it.

Marrying for love may be a bit risky, but it is so honest that God can't help but smile on it.
