"We are born to inquire into truth; it belongs to a greater to possess it" — Michel Eyquem de Montaigne

What lies behind us and what lies ahead of us are tiny matters compared to what lives within us

Rare is the union of beauty and purity

Beauty and folly are old companions

Character is higher than intellect. A great soul will be strong to live as well as think

It's not beauty but fine qualities, my girl, that keep a husband

Condition for a good marriage is to find the right person and to be even the right person.
