Quote

If we resist our passions it is more from their weakness than from our strength

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is to try just one more time

A man can’t ride your back unless it’s bent

It is better to offer no excuse than a bad one

If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter

Without passion man is a mere latent force and possibility, like the flint which awaits the shock of the iron before it can give forth its spark
