...For the unquiet heart and brain,
A use in measured language lies.

Ah, what shall I be at fifty,
should nature keep me alive,
if I find the world so bitter
when I am but twenty-five?

Believing where we cannot prove.

Cast all your cares on God; that anchor holds.

For I dipped into the future, as far as human eye could see, saw a vision of the world, and all the wonder that would be.

Hope smiles on the threshold of the year to come, whispering that it will be happier.

I am a part of all I have seen.

I must lose myself in action, lest I wither in despair.

Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers.

Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers.

Self-reverence, self knowledge, self-control. These three alone lead life to sovereign power.

The greater man the greater courtesy.

The happiness of a man in this life does not consist in the absence but in the mastery of his passions.

There lives more faith in honest doubt,
Believe me,
than in half the creeds.

To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
