Instead of noblemen, let us have noble villages of men.
From Henry David Thoreau
After the first blush of sin comes its indifference.
Nature puts no question and answers none which we mortals ask. She has long ago taken her resolution.
If an injustice requires you to be the agent of injustice to another, then, I say, break the law. Let your life be a counter-friction to stop the government machine.
Many men go fishing all of their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after.
There is one consolation in being sick; and that is the possibility that you may recover to a better state than you were ever in before.
Never look back unless you are planning to go that way.
Not until we are lost do we begin to understand ourselves.
An early-morning walk is a blessing for the whole day.
We must learn to reawaken and keep ourselves awake, not by mechanical aid, but by an infinite expectation of the dawn.
