Poets and heroes are of the same race, the latter do what the former conceive.
From Alphonse de Lamartine
The people only understand what they can feel; the only orators that can affect them are those who move them.
Habit with it's iron sinews, clasps us and leads us day by day.
Grief knits two hearts in closer bonds than happiness ever can; and common sufferings are far stronger links than common joys.
Providence conceals itself in the details of human affairs, but becomes unveiled in the generalities of history.
