“It is much safer to obey, than to govern”

“You would be surprised how hard it often is to translate an action into thought”

“It is not the truth that a man possesses, or believes that he possesses, but the earnest effort which he puts forward to reach the truth, which constitutes the worth of a man.”

“Must is a hard nut to crack, but it has a sweet kernel.”

“A banker is a fellow who lends you his umbrella when the sun is shining, but wants it back the minute it begins to rain”
