The first symptom of love in a young man is timidity; in a girl boldness.
From Victor Hugo
To rise from error to truth is rare and beautiful.
To learn to read is to light a fire; every syllable that is spelled out is a spark.
Whenever a man's friends begin to compliment him about looking young, he may be sure that they think he is growing old.
Be like the bird who, pausing in her flight awhile on boughs too slight, feels them give way beneath her, and yet sings, knowing she hath wings.
There is nothing like a dream to create the future.
To love beauty is to see light.
There is a sacred horror about everything grand. It is easy to admire mediocrity and hills; but whatever is too lofty, a genius as well as a mountain, an assembly as well as a masterpiece, seen too near, is appalling.
To love another person is to see the face of God.
Each man should frame life so that at some future hour fact and his dreaming meet.
