Other world? There is no other world; here or nowhere is the whole fact.

There comes a period of the imagination to each--a later youth--the power of beauty, the power of looks, of poetry.

There is always room for a person of force and they make room for many.

Times of heroism are generally times of terror, but the day never shines in which this element may not work.

Solvency is maintained by means of a national debt, on the principle, "If you will not lend me the money, how can I pay you?"

Nothing can work damage to me except myself; the harm that I sustain I carry about with me and never am a real sufferer except by my own fault.

A friend is the hope of the heart.
