Charles William Eliot

Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers.

All business proceeds on beliefs, or judgments of probabilities, and not on certainties.

The best way to secure future happiness is to be as happy as is rightfully possible to-day.

Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counsellors, and the most patient of teachers.
