Really don't choose every day from the harvest you experience but from the seeds you plant

I have seen wicked men and fools, a great many of both; and I believe they both get paid in the end; but the fools first.

There can be no fairer ambition than to excel in talk; to be affable, gay, ready, clear, and welcome.

An aim in life is the only fortune worth the finding; and it is not to be found in foreign lands, but in the heart itself.

It is better to be a fool than to be dead.

Some people swallow the universe like a pill; they travel on through the world, like smiling images pushed from behind.

The world has no room for cowards.
