“Talk not of wasted affection - affection never was wasted.”

 

“We judge ourselves by what we feel capable of doing, while others judge us by what we have already done.”

 

“The mind of the scholar, if he would leave it large and liberal, should come in contact with other minds.”

 

“Sometimes we may learn more from a man's errors, than from his virtues.”

 

“He that respects himself is safe from others. He wears a coat of mail that none can pierce.”

 

“However things may seem, no evil thing is success and no good thing is failure.”

 

“Look not mournfully into the past, it comes not back again. Wisely improve the present, it is thine. Go forth to meet the shadowy future without fear and with a manly heart.”

 

Love gives itself; it is not bought.
