Nothing great was ever achieved without it. That is to have succeeded. This time, like all time, is a very good one if we but know what to do with it. Our chief want in life is somebody who shall make us do what we can. Art is a jealous mistress, and if a man has a genius for painting, poetry, music, architecture or philosophy, he makes a bad husband and an ill provider.
All mankind love a lover.
To the dull mind all nature is leaden. To the Illumined mind the whole world burns and sparkle with lights. The ancestor of every action is a thought.
