It is in vain to hope to please all alike. Let a man stand with his face in what direction he will, he must necessarily turn his back on one half of the world.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
All we can do is find the courage to stand still and to look backwards.
As long as a man stands in his own way, everything seems to be in his way.
A man of the world must seem to be what he wishes to be thought.
Every man eventually is backed up to the wall of faith, and there he must make his stand.
It is a true miracle when a man finally sees himself as his only opposition.
But the main things about a man are his eyes and his feet. He should be able to see the world and go after it.
It is the common wonder of all men, how among so many million faces, there should be none alike.
No one else looks out upon the world so kindly and charitably as the pedestrian; no one else gives and takes so much from the country he passes through.
The world turns aside to let any man pass who knows whither he is going.
The world is a looking glass and gives back to every man the reflection of his own face.
