I will not steep my speech in lies; the test of any man lies in action.

Every gift which is given, even though is be small, is in reality great, if it is given with affection

A graceful and honorable old age is the childhood of immortality.

Learn what you are and be such.

Forge thy tongue on an anvil of truth and what flies up, though it be but a spark, will have light.

Not every truth is the better for showing its face undisguised; and often silence is the wisest thing for a man to heed.

A thing said walks in immortality if it has been said well.
