A thought often makes us hotter than a fire.

Let us be patient! These severe afflictions, Not from the ground arise; But oftentimes celestial benedictions, Assume this dark disguise

The talent of success is nothing more than doing what you can do well, and doing well whatever you do without thought of fame. If it comes at all it will come because it is deserved, not because it is sought after.

Intelligence and courtesy not always are combined; Often in a wooden house a golden room we find.

Love keeps the cold out better than a cloak.

Every man has his secret sorrows which the world knows not; and often times we call a man cold when he is only sad.
