I love those who can smile in trouble, who can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection. 'Tis the business of little minds to shrink, but they whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves their conduct, will pursue their principles unto death.
From Leonardo da Vinci
Tears come from the heart and not from the brain.
It had long since come to my attention that people of accomplishment rarely sat back and let things happen to them. They went out and happened to things.
Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.
Learning never exhausts the mind.
As a well-spent day brings happy sleep, so a life well spent brings happy death.
It's easier to resist at the beginning than at the end.
Who sows virtue reaps honor.
Time abides long enough for those who make use of it.
The noblest pleasure is the joy of understanding.
