I enter a most earnest plea that in our hurried and rather bustling life of today we do not lose the hold that our forefathers had on the Bible.

Absence and death are the same - only that in death there is no suffering.

The man who loves other countries as much as his own stands on a level with the man who loves other women as much as he loves his own wife.

We want men who will fix their eyes on the stars, but who will not forget that their feet must walk on the ground.

Nothing in the world is worth having or worth doing unless it means effort, pain, difficulty… I have never in my life envied a human being who led an easy life. I have envied a great many people who led difficult lives and led them well.

It is only the warlike power of a civilized people that can give peace to the world.

It's not the critic who counts.
