Your confidence in the people, and your doubt about them, are closely related to your self-confidence and your self-doubt.

I love you, my brother, whoever you are - whether you worship in a church, kneel in your temple, or pray in your mosque. You and I are children of one faith, for the diverse paths of religion are fingers of the loving hand of the one supreme being, a hand extended to all, offering completeness of spirit to all, eager to receive all.

Youth is a beautiful dream, on whose brightness books shed a blinding dust. Will ever the day come when the wise link the joy of knowledge to youth's dream?

Too slow is our march toward spiritual elevation, because we make so little use of youth's ardor.

I would not exchange the laughter of my heart for the fortunes of the multitudes.
