Nothing leads to good that is not natural..
Yes great people are always subject to persecution and always getting into straits..
There is no such thing as chance; and what seem to us merest accident springs from the deepest source of destiny..
Every man stamps his value on himself... man is made great or small by his own will..
Honesty prospers in every condition of life..
Friends show me what I can do, foes teach me what I should do..
Did you think the lion was sleeping because he didn't roar?.
If you wish to know yourself observe how others act. If you wish to understand others look into your own heart..
In the society, where people are just parts in a larger machine, individuals are unable to develop fully..
The lamp of genius burns quicker than the lamp of life..
Against stupidity, God Himself fights in vain..
Dare to be wrong and to dream..
Only those who have the patience to do simple things perfectly will acquire the skill to do difficult things easily..
When you are not happy with your life, always think that someone is happy simply because you exist.
The voice of the majority is no proof of justice..
It is well for a man when he has learned to endure what he cannot change, and to give up with dignity what he cannot retain..
Great souls endure in silence..
The future comes slowly, the present flies and the past stands still forever..
It is not the mere station of life that stamps the value on us, but the manner in which we act our part..
Who dares nothing, need hope for nothing..
Lose not yourself in a far off time, seize the moment that is thine..
