There are certain words which are nearer and dearer to a man than any others.

As you pass from the tender years of youth into harsh and embittered manhood, make sure you take with you on your journey all the human emotions! Don't leave them on the road, for you will not pick them up afterwards!

They don’t listen to me, they don’t hear me, they don’t see me.

Steeds, steeds, what steeds! Has the whirlwind a home in your manes?

What are you laughing at? You are laughing at yourself.

There exists a kind of laughter which is worthy to be ranked with the higher lyric emotions and is infinitely different from the twitching of a mean merrymaker.

A time of famine and poverty will come and the people as a whole as well as every individual in it will suffer.
