... the song of the world is all of love.

Activity is a sovereign remedy for the blues.

No woman need fear the effect of absence upon the man who honestly loves her. The needle of the compass, regardless of intervening seas, points forever toward the north. Pitiful indeed is she who fails to be a magnet and blindly becomes a chain.

At twenty, men love woman; at thirty, a woman; and at forty, women.

Married and unmarried women waste a great deal of time in feeling sorry for each other.

Of all the things that make for happiness, the love of books comes first. No matter how the world may have used us, sure solace lies there.

Nothing in the world was ever built without a dream at the beginning.
