Talk that does not end in any kind of action is better suppressed altogether.
From Thomas Carlyle
Old age is not a matter for sorrow. It is matter for thanks if we have left our work done behind us.
The outer passes away; the innermost is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
Show me the person you honor, for I know better by that the kind of person you are. For you show me what your idea of humanity is.
Conviction never so excellent, is worthless until it coverts itself into conduct.
No iron chain, or outward force of any kind, can ever compel the soul of a person to believe or to disbelieve.
Oh, give us the man who sings at his work.
The three great elements of modern civilization, Gun powder, Printing, and the Protestant religion.
The fearful unbelief is unbelief in yourself.
The only happiness a brave person ever troubles themselves in asking about, is happiness enough to get their work done.
