Hatred is active, and envy passive dislike; there is but one step from envy to hate.
From Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
What is important in life is life, and not the result of life.
Deeply earnest and thoughtful people stand on shaky footing with the public.
To the person with a firm purpose all men and things are servants.
Be generous with kindly words, especially about those who are absent.
Every spoken word arouses our self-will.
Nature knows no pause in progress and development, and attaches her curse on all inaction.
In art the best is good enough.
We cannot fashion our children after our desires, we must have them and love them as God has given them to us.
The best government is that which teaches us to govern ourselves.
