Mind

Cheerfulness is the best promoter of health and is as friendly to the mind as to the body

True silence is the rest of the mind, and is to the spirit what sleep is to the body, nourishment and refreshment

A wise man should have money in his head, but not in his heart

True enjoyment comes from activity of the mind and exercise of the body; the two are ever united.

A house is not a home unless it contains food and fire for the mind as well as the body

If wrinkles must be written upon our brows, let them not be written upon the heart. The spirit should never grow old

The way to love anything is to realize that it may be lost.

For every minute you remain angry, you give up sixty seconds of peace of mind

When anger rises, think of the consequences.

A man paints with his brains and not with his hands

Fine art is that in which the hand, the head, and the heart of man go together

Common sense in an uncommon degree is what the world calls wisdom

A free society is one where it is safe to be unpopular

Travelling expands the mind rarely

In action a great heart is the chief qualification. In work, a great head

Nature and books belong to the eyes that see them.

People who lean on logic and philosophy and rational exposition end by starving the best part of the mind.

A fool often fails because he thinks what is difficult is easy, a wise man because he thinks what is easy is difficult

Men, as well as women, are much oftener led by their hearts than by their understandings.

The less men think, the more they talk.
