Success in life, in anything, depends upon the number of persons that one can make himself agreeable to.
Thomas CarlyleNo man lives without jostling and being jostled; in all ways he has to elbow himself through the world, giving and receiving offence.
Thomas CarlyleThere is but one temple in this Universe: The Body. We speak to God whenever we lay our hands upon it.
Thomas CarlyleThe weakest living creature, by concentrating his powers on a single object, can accomplish something. The strongest, by dispensing his over many, may fail to accomplish anything. The drop, by continually falling, bores its passage through the hardest rock. The hasty torrent rushes over it with hideous uproar, and leaves no trace behind.
