Lowliness is the base of every virtue, And he who goes the lowest builds the safest.
The hero is the world-man, in whose heart One passion stands for all, the most indulged.
When pride thaws, look for floods.
Life hath more awe than death.
Life is less than nothing without love.
There is no surer mark of the absence of the highest moral and intellectual qualities than a cold reception of excellence.
