“Every human being has a work to carry on within, duties to perform abroad, influence to exert, which are peculiarly his, and which no conscience but his own can teach”

“Do your duty and a little more and the future will take care of itself”

“All men were created to busy themselves with labor for the common good”

“The first day one is a guest, the second a burden, and the third a pest”
