Everything is hard before it is easy. |
The things that matter most must never be at the mercy of the things that matter least. |
The day of fortune is like a harvest day, We must be busy when the corn is ripe. |
Nature goes her own way, and all that to us seems an exception is really according to order. |
Fortune rarely accompanies anyone to the door. |
Daring ideas are like chessmen moved forward; they may be beaten, but they may start a winning game. |
Love is an ideal thing, marriage a real thing; a confusion of the real with the ideal never goes unpunished. |
Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough; we must do. |
To think is easy. To act is hard. But the hardest thing in the world is to act in accordance with your thinking. |
