Though a hundred crooked paths may conduct to a temporary success, the one plain and straight path of public and private virtue can alone lead to a pure and lasting fame and the blessings of posterity

I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something. And because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do the something that I can do. What I can do, I should do. And what I should do, by the grace of God, I will do.

The making of friends who are real friends, is the best token we have of a man's success in life.

What by a straight path cannot be reached by crooked ways is never won.

I am only one, But still I am one. I cannot do everything, But still I can do something; And because I cannot do everything I will not refuse to do the something that I can do.

He takes the crooked path of the unrighteous way; leaving the straight and narrow path, he weaves his way backwards.
