One man's justice is another's injustice; one man's beauty another's ugliness; one man's wisdom anpther's folly.

In imitation is a bit suicide.

The city is always recruited from the country. The men in cities who are the centres of energy, the driving-wheels of trade, politics or practical arts, and the women of beauty and genius, are the children or grandchildren of farmers, and are spending the energies which their fathers' hardy, silent life accumulated in frosty furrows in poverty, necessity and darkness.

The reason why all men honor love is because it looks up, and not down; aspires and not despairs.

For beauty is God's handwriting...A nd, thank God for it as a cup of His blessing.

The first point of courtesy must always be truth.

Teach that God is, not was; that He speaketh, not spake.
