Quote

I never did anything worth doing by accident, nor did any of my inventions come by accident

My pride fell with my fortunes

It is by the fortune of God that, in this country, we have three benefits: freedom of speech, freedom of thought, and the wisdom never to use either.

Make the best use of what is in your power, and take the rest as it happens

There is no fatigue so wearisome as that which comes from lack of work

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