With the young man starting in business, let him understand the value of money by earning it.

A salary was not sufficient for me.

Men, women, and children who cannot live on gravity alone need something to satisfy their gayer, lighter moods and hours, and he who ministers to this want is, in my opinion, in a business established by the Creator of our nature. If he worthily fulfills his mission and amuses without corrupting, he need never feel that he has lived in vain.

Nothing draws a crowd quite like a crowd.

Unless a man enters upon the vocation intended for him by nature, and best suited to his peculiar genius, he cannot succeed.

The orthodox faith painted God as a revengeful being, and yet people talk about loving such a being.

No profession, trade, or calling, is overcrowded in the upper story.
