A man often pays dear for a small frugality.

Dare to live the life you have dreamed for yourself. Go forward and make your dreams come true.

There is nothing capricious in nature and the implanting of a desire indicates that its gratification is in the constitution of the creature that feel it.

There is more in every person's soul than we think.

There is hope in extravagance, there is none in routine.

There is a relation between the hours of our life and the centuries of time. As the air I breathe is drawn from the great repositories of nature, as the light on my book is yielded by a star a hundred millions of miles distant, as the poise of my body depends on the equilibrium of centrifugal and centripetal forces, so the hours should be instructed by the ages and the ages explained by the hours.

The most dangerous thing is illusion.
