The wisdom of the wise, and the experience of ages, may be preserved by quotation.
Silence is the perfectest herald of joy.
Heroes in history seem to us poetic. No thing is beautiful. But all things await the sensitive and imaginative mind that may be aroused to pleasurable emotion at the sight of them. Every man ought to be inquisitive through every hour of his great adventure down to the day when he shall no longer cast a shadow in the sun. It is not wisdom to be only wise, And on the inward vision close the eyes, But it is wisdom to believe the heart.
