I think and think for months, for years. Ninety-nine times the conclusion is false. The hundredth time I am right. - Albert EinsteinSome are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon 'em. - William ShakespeareOne man who has a mind and knows it can always beat ten men who haven't and don't. - George Bernard ShawMy words fly up, my thoughts remain below; Words without thoughts never to heaven go. - William ShakespeareI am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true.

Many receive advice, only the wise profit by it. Admonish your friends privately, but praise them openly. If you wish to reach the highest, begin at the lowest. It is a good thing to learn caution by the misfortunes of others. The circumstances of others seem good to us, while ours seem good to others. To confess a fault freely is the next thing to being innocent of it. No one reaches a high position without daring. Some remedies are worse than the disease. Forgive others often, yourself never. A friend must not be injured, even in jest. Reprove your friends in secret, praise them openly. He who flees from trial confesses his guilt. The pain of the mind is worse than the pain of the body. We should lay up in peace what we shall need in war. In quarreling the truth is always lost. It is not every question that deserves an answer. I regret often that I have spoken; never that I have been silent. No good man ever became suddenly rich. A woman either loves or hates: she knows no medium. The remedy for wrongs is to forget them. |
