Forty is the old age of youth; fifty the youth of old age.

No army can withstand the strength of an idea whose time has come.

I like the laughter that opens the lips and the heart, shows at the same time the pearls and the soul.

A house is built of logs and stone, of tiles and posts and piers; a home is built of loving deeds that stand a thousand years.

No one ever keeps a secret so well as a child.

He had slipped, climbed, rolled, searched, walked, persevered, that is all. Such is the secret of all triumphs.

A strange thing has happened, do you know? I am in darkness. There is a person who, departing, took away the sun.
