Fortune may rob us of our wealth, not of our courage.
That comes too late that comes for the asking.
Human society is like an arch, kept from falling by the mutual pressure of its parts
Life is most delightful on the downward slope.
He who does not prevent a crime, when he can, encourages it.
Why will no man confess his faults? Because he continues to indulge in them; a man cannot tell his dream till he wakes.
