Be such a man, and live such a life, that if every man were such as you, and every life a life like yours, this earth would be God's Paradise.

I would like to believe every man is a one-woman man.

Let every man and woman count himself immortal. Let him catch the revelation of Jesus in his resurrection. Let him say not merely, 'Christ is risen,' but 'I shall rise.'

I felt I was getting as near to paradise on this earth as any man could ever get,

Forgive, forget. Bear with the faults of others as you would have them bear with yours.

I live, like every real man, in my work.
