"Alone each heart must cover up its dead; alone, through bitter toil, achieve its rest."
"Opportunity is rare, and a wise man will never let it go by him."
"Fame is what you have taken, character is what you give. When to this truth you awaken, then you begin to live."
"By wisdom wealth is won; but riches purchased wisdom yet for none."
"The loving are the daring."
