The love of a mother is the veil of a softer light between the heart and the heavenly Father.
From Samuel Taylor Coleridge
He is the best physician who is the most ingenious inspirer of hope.
Advice is like snow - the softer it falls, the longer it dwells upon, and the deeper it sinks into the mind.
The happiness of life is made up of minute fractions - the little, soon forgotten charities of a kiss or a smile, a kind look or heartfelt compliment.

That willing suspension of disbelief for the moment, which constitutes poetic faith.
The principle of the Gothic architecture is infinity made imaginable.
Language is the armory of the human mind, and at once contains the trophies of its past and the weapons of its future conquests.
General principles... are to the facts as the root and sap of a tree are to its leaves.
To sentence a man of true genius, to the drudgery of a school is to put a racehorse on a treadmill.
