Every revolution was first a thought in one man's mind.
No man thoroughly understands a truth until he has contended against it.
He who does a good deed is instantly ennobled. He who does a mean deed is by the action itself contracted.
The secret of the illusoriness is in the necessity of a succession of moods or objects. Gladly we would anchor, but the anchorageis quicksand.
No man can help another without helping himself.
It is never too late to do right.
