As the mother's womb holds us for ten months, making us ready, not for the womb itself, but for life, just so, through our lives, we are making ourselves ready for another birth...Therefore look forward without fear to that appointed hour- the last hour of the body, but not of the soul...That day, which you fear as being the end of all things, is the birthday of your eternity.

The Fates guide those who go willingly. Those who do not, they drag.

The point is, not how long you live, but how nobly you live.

Revenge is an inhuman word.

It is a denial of justice not to stretch out a helping hand to the fallen that is the common right of humanity.

We gain so much by quickness, and lose so much by slowness.

Nothing is more honorable than a grateful heart.
