A spark is a little thing, yet it may kindle the world.
The mines of knowledge are often laid bare by the hazel-wand of chance.
A good book is the best of friends, the same today and forever.
Take the good with the evil, for ye all are pensioners of God, and none may choose or refuse the cup His wisdom mixeth.
Men scanning the surface count the wicked happy; they see not the frightful dreams that crowd a bad man's pillow.
Love with life is heaven; and life, unloving, hell.
