You learn to know a pilot in a storm.
Something that can never be learnt too thoroughly can never be said too often.
The foundation of the true joy is in the conscience.
He that will do no good offices after a disappointment must stand still, and do just nothing at all. The plough goes on after a barren year; and while the ashes are yet warm, we raise a new house upon the ruins of a former.
Gold is tried by fire, brave men by adversity.
Life without the courage for death is slavery.
