Governments are the sails, the people the wind, the country is the ship and time is the sea.
History teaches us virtue, but nature never ceases to teachh us vice.
Nought endures but change.
If you must hate, if hatred is the leaven of your life, which alone can give flavor, then hate what should be hated: falsehood, violence, selfishness.
Nothing is lasting but change; nothing perpetual but death.
You are not loved when you are lovely, but when you are loved you are found to be lovely.
