A true teacher defends his students against his own personal influences.
From Amos Bronson Alcott
Where there is a mother in the home, matters go well.
While one finds company in himself and his pursuits, he cannot feel old, no matter what his years may be.
Debate is masculine, conversation is feminine.
Our dreams drench us in sense, and sense steeps us again in dreams.
Who speaks to the instincts speaks to the deepest in mankind, and finds the readiest response.
Who knows, the mind has the key to all things besides.
One must be a wise reader to quote wisely and well.
Thought means life, since those who do not think so do not live in any high or real sense. Thinking makes the man.
Strengthen me by sympathizing with my strength, not my weakness.
