Knowledge is when you learn something new every day. Wisdom is when you let something go every day.

The poorest experience is rich enough for all the purposes of expressing thought

Travel is a fools paradise.

Men talk as if victory were something fortunate. Work is victory.

The Sun is the sole inconsumable fireAnd God is the sole inexhaustible Giver.

Few people know how to take a walk. The qualifications are endurance, plain clothes, old shoes, an eye for nature, good humor, vast curiosity, good speech, good silence and nothing too much.

Yet some natures are too good to be spoiled by praise, and wherever the vein of thought reaches down into the profound, there is no danger from vanity. Solemn friends will warn them of the danger of the head's being turned by the flourish of trumpets, but they can afford to smile.
