Nobody has ever measured, not even poets, how much the heart can hold.

Muddy water is best cleared by leaving it alone.

I have stood on a mountain of no's for one yes.

To go wrong in one's own way is better than to go right in someone else's.

What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.

I felt it shelter to speak to you.

Learning never exhausts the mind.

It isn't a sadness, but a joy, that we don't do the same things for the length of our lives.

The winds and waves are always on the side of the ablest navigators.

Find the thing you do well and do it again and again for the rest of your life.

Above all, don't fear difficult moments. The best comes from them.

I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.
