Let wickedness escape as it may at the bar, it never fails of doing justice upon itself; for every guilty person is his own hangman.

We have lost morals, justice, honor, piety and faith, and that sense of shame which, once lost, can never be restored.

Forgive that you may be forgiven.

He is most powerful who governs himself.

Let us bear with magnanimity whatever it is needful for us to bear.

That which we are not permitted to have we delight in; that which we can have is disregarded.

Do not grudge your brother his rest. He has at last become free, safe and immortal, and ranges joyous through the boundless heavens; he has left this low-lying region and has soared upwards to that place which receives in its happy bosom the souls set free from the chains of matter. Your brother has not lost the light of day, but has obtained a more enduring light. He has not left us, but has gone on before.
