If all were rich, gold would be penniless.

We live not to ourselves, our work is life.

Let each man think himself an act of God, His mind a thought, his life a breath of God; And let each try, by great thoughts and good deeds, To show the most of Heaven he hath in him.

Man is one; and he hath one great heart. It is thus we feel, with a gigantic throb athwart the sea, each other's rights and wrongs; thus are we men.

The hero is the world-man, in whose heart One passion stands for all, the most indulged.

None but God can fill the perfect whole.

Art is a man's nature; nature is God's art.
