Every man is a volume if you know how to read him.

A man in earnest finds means or, if he cannot find, creates them.

The worst tyrants are those which establish themselves in our own breasts.

Compassionate Saviour! We welcome Thee to our world, We welcome Thee to our hearts. We bless Thee for the Divine goodness Thou hast brought from heaven; for the souls Thou hast warmed with love to man, and lifted up in love to God; for the efforts of divine philanthropy which Thou hast inspired; and for that hope of a pure celestial life, through which Thy disciples triumph over death.

In the long run, truth is aided by nothing so much as by opposition.

May your life preach more loudly than your lips.

Do anything rather than give yourself to reverie.
