No man is so great as mankind.

Whether a man is burdened by power or enjoys power; whether he is trapped by responsibility or made free by it; whether he is moved by other people and outer forces or moves them -- this is of the essence of leadership.

Truth never yet fell dead in the streets; it has such affinity with the soul of man, the seed however broadcast will catch somewhere and produce its hundredfold.

Great thoughts speak only to the thoughtful mind, but great actions speak to all mankind.

The miser, starving his brother's body, starves also his own soul, and at death shall creep out of his great estate of injustice, poor and naked and miserable.

No man is worth his salt who is not ready at all times to risk his body - to risk his well-being - to risk his life - in a great cause
