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? Will ever the day come when Nature becomes the teacher of man, humanity his book and life his school? Youth's joyous purpose cannot be fulfilled until that day comes. Too slow is our march toward spiritual elevation, because we make so little use of youth's ardor.

Inspiration will always sing; inspiration will never explain.

A root is a flower that disdains fame.

Rob a neighbour with a smile.

How narrow is the vision that exalts the busyness of the ant above the singing of the grasshopper.

To be closer to god, be closer to people.

A little knowledge that acts is worth infinitely more than much knowledge that is idle.
