No man has ever lived that had enough of children's gratitude or woman's love.

The falcon cannot hear the falconer

We are fastened to a dying animal.

What do we know but that we face one another in this place?

One should say before sleeping: I have lived many lives. I have been a slave and a prince. Many a beloved has sat upon my knee and I have sat upon the knees of many a beloved. Everything that has been shall be again.

Think where man's glory most begins and ends, and say my glory was I had such friends.

Man can embody truth but he cannot know it.
