There are more truths in twenty-four hours of a man's life than in all the philosophies.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
There are truths which are not for all men, nor for all times.
A man who views the world the same at fifty as he did at twenty has wasted thirty years of his life.
There are many truths of which the full meaning cannot be realized until personal experience has brought it home.
I have a theory that the truth is never told during the nine-to-five hours.
The ideas gained by men before they are twenty-five are practically the only ideas they shall have in their lives.
The life of every man is a diary in which he means to write one story, and writes another; and his humblest hour is when he compares the volume as it is with what he vowed to make it.
The trouble about man is twofold. He cannot learn truths which are too complicated; he forgets truths which are too simple.
There must be a day or two in a man's life when he is the precise age for something important.
Experience has shown, and a true philosophy will always show, that a vast, perhaps the larger portion of the truth arises from the seemingly irrelevant.
Every man is a damn fool for at least five minutes every day; wisdom consists in not exceeding the limit.
