Quote

Experience is the teacher of all things

When a thing has been said and well said, have no scruple; take it and copy it

A man only learns in two ways, one by reading, and the other by association with smarter people

Example, whether it be good or bad, has a powerful influence

I have lerned silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and kindness from the unkind; yet, strange, I am ungrateful to those teachers

Make it a rule never to give a child a book you would not read yourself.
