Let us not bankrupt our today's by paying interest on the regrets of yesterday and borrowing in advance the troubles of tomorrow.

What makes greatness is starting something that lives after you.

Our growth depends not on how many experiences we devour, but on how many we digest.

The test of courage comes when we are in the minority. The test of tolerance comes when we are in the majority.

Whatever the right hand findeth to do, the left hand carries a watch on its wrist to show how long it takes to do it.

The roots of responsibility run out to the ends of the earth and we can no more isolate our consciences from world issues than we can fence off our oyster beds from the tides of the ocean.

In all living there is a certain narrowness of application which leads to breadth and power. We have to concent on a thing in order to master it. Then we must be broad enough not to be narrowed by our specialties.
