Even peace may be purchased at too high a price. Energy and persistence conquer all things. Early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy wealthy and wise. Each year one vicious habit rooted out, in time might make the worst man good throughout. Drive thy business, let not that drive thee. Glass, china, and reputation are easily cracked, and never mended well. Dost thou love life? Then do not squander time, for that is the stuff life is made of. God grant that not only the love of liberty but a thorough knowledge of the rights of man may pervade all the nations of the earth, so that a philosopher may set his foot anywhere on its surface and say: This is my country. Don't judge men's wealth or godliness by their Sunday appearance. Do not anticipate trouble or worry about what may never happen. Keep in the sunlight. |
