Conscience is a great moralist inside us with a stick in its hand. It is a whip of virtue which oppresses us unmercifully when we do wrong.

Power is not to resist the criticisms; power is to seek for something useful to use amongst the criticisms!

We can create a more beautiful nature by not touching it and by leaving it alone!

Wake up early; it is great to live the mornings.

There is the will of the people, there is the will of the mind! Always be at the side of the second one! The first one contains mostly stupidity; the second one contains always intelligence.

The most beautiful springs are those that come after the most horrible winters!

Before climbing the summits, you must first walk in the down valleys!
