Hope is the best possession.
Persons of slender intellectual stamina dread competition, as dwarfs are afraid of being run over in the street.
Rules and models destroy genius and art.
Poverty, when it is voluntary, is never despicable, but takes an heroical aspect.
Without the aid of prejudice and custom, I should not be able to find my way across the room.
Look up, laugh loud, talk big, keep the color in your cheek and the fire in your eye, adorn your person, maintain your health, your beauty and your animal spirits.
