It is like taking the sun out of the world, to bereave human life of friendship.

A thankful heart is not only the greatest virtue but the parent of all the other virtues.

Love is the attempt to form a friendship inspired by beauty.

When time and need require, we should resist with all our might, and prefer death to slavery and disgrace.

There is no moment without some duty.

Nature has circumscribed the field of life within small dimensions, but has left the field of glory unmeasured.

Be a pattern to others and then all will go well.
