We are going to a new world... and no doubt it is there that everything is for the best; for it must be admitted that one might lament a little over the physical and moral happenings of our own world.

This is no time to be making new enemies.

I also know that we should cultivate our gardens.

Everyone places his good where he can and has as much of it as he can, in his own way.

If one does not reflect, one thinks oneself master of everything; but when one does reflect, one realizes that one is master of nothing.

There is only one morality, as there is only one geometry.

This is no time to make new enemies.
