Revenge is an inhuman word.

Cling tooth and nail to the following rule: Not to give in to adversity, never to trust prosperity, and always to take full note of fortune's habit of behaving just as she pleases, treating her as if she were actually going to do everything it is in her power to do. Whatever you have been expecting for some time comes as less of a shock.

God is near you, is with you, is inside you.

The evil which assails us is not in the localities we inhabit but in ourselves.

We learn not in the school, but in life.

Nothing, to my way of thinking, is a better proof of a well-ordered mind than a man's ability to stop just where he is and pass some time in his own company.

Live among others as if God beheld you; speak to God as if others were listening.
