- Whoever renders service to many puts himself in line for greatness ... great wealth, great return, great satisfaction, great reputation, and great joy.
- Three things drive a man out of his hours, smoke, a leaking roof and a nagging wife.
- Other people's opinion of you does not have to become your reality.
- Bitterness is like cancer. It eats upon the host. But anger is like fire. It burns it all clean.
- Life will always be to a large extent what we ourselves make it.
- The universe is wider than our views of it.
- Sound the clarion, fill the fife! To all the sensual world proclaim. One crowded hour of glorious life is worth an age without a name.
- Everything in Nature contains all the powers of Nature. Everything is made of hidden stuff.
- Imagination is the highest kite one can fly.
- Lord Bacon told Sir Edward Coke when he was boasting, The less you speak of your greatness, the more shall I think of it.
- Something of a person's character may be observed by how they smile. Some never smile they only grin.
- All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.
