Continued work and application form my soul's nourishment. So soon as I commenced to rest and relax I should cease to live.
Often on earth the gentlest heart is fain To feed and banquet on another's woe.
Books have led some to learning and others to madness.
Ruthless striving, overcomes everything.
Virtue is health, vice is sickness.
Mere elegance of language can produce at best but an empty renown.
