"But friendship is precious, not only in the shade, but in the sunshine of life, and thanks to a benevolent arrangemen…" — Thomas Jefferson

All my life I have tried to pluck a thistle and plant a flower wherever the flower would grow in thought and mind

What is called genius is the abundance of life and health

There is no power on earth that can neutralize the influence of a high, simple and useful life

Youth is the best time to be rich, and the best time to be poor

Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards

Forgiveness is the giving, and so the receiving, of life
