Who knows most, doubts most; entertaining hope means recognizing fear.
Why stay on the earth except to grow.
The aim, if reached or not, makes great the life: Try to be Shakespeare, leave the rest to fate!
They are perfect; how else?-they shall never change: We are faulty; why not?-we have time in store.
Days decrease, / And autumn grows, autumn in everything.
If you can sit at set of sun And count the deeds that you have done And counting find oneself-denying act, one word That eased the heart of him that heard. One glance most kind, Which fell like sunshine where he went, Then you may count that day well spent.
