Home - the nursery of the Infinite.

It feeds and grows on the blood which it sheds. The passions , from which it springs, gain strength and fury from indulgence.

To extinguish the free will is to strike the conscience with death, for both have but one and the same life.

Difficulties are meant to rouse, not discourage. The human spirit is to grow strong by conflict.

He who is false to the present duty breaks a thread in the loom, and you will see the effect when the weaving of a life-time is unraveled.
