“Character is power”

“To keep the heart unwrinkled, to be hopeful, kindly, cheerful, reverent that is to triumph over old age”

“It is the nature of the wise to resist pleasures, but the foolish to be a slave to them”

“Bashfulness is an ornament to youth, but a reproach to old age”

“A man's true state of power and riches is to be in himself”

“A man of courage is also full of faith ”
