The most learned are often the most narrow minded.
From William Hazlitt
Look up, laugh loud, talk big, keep the color in your cheek and the fire in your eye, adorn your person, maintain your health, your beauty and your animal spirits.
As is our confidence, so is our capacity.
Everything is in motion. Everything flows. Everything is vibrating.
The truly proud man knows neither superiors or inferiors. The first he does not admit of - the last he does not concern himself about.
The incentive to ambition is the love of power.
To be capable of steady friendship or lasting love, are the two greatest proofs, not only of goodness of heart, but of strength of mind.
We do not see nature with our eyes, but with our understandings and our hearts.
The world judge of men by their ability in their profession, and we judge of ourselves by the same test: for it is on that on which our success in life depends.
Those who are at war with others are not at peace with themselves.
