He who wants to do good knocks at the gate: he who loves finds the door open.

Man is a rough-hewn and woman a finished product.

With begging and scrambling we find very little, but with being true to ourselves we find a great deal more.

The truth comes as conqueror only because we have lost the art of receiving it as guest.

The potentiality of perfection outweighs actual contradictions... Existence in itself is here to prove that it cannot be an evil.

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high, where knowledge is free. Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls. Where words come out from the depth of truth, where tireless striving stretches its arms toward perfection. Where the clear stream of reason has not lost it's way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit. Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever widening thought and action. In to that heaven of freedom, my father, LET MY COUNTRY AWAKE!

Now it is time to sit quiet, face to face with thee, and to sing dedication of life in this silent and overflowing leisure.
