Whatever the job you are asked to do at whatever level, do a good job because your reputation is your resume. Though our feelings come and go, God's love for us does not. This world's a bubble. All empty souls tend to extreme opinion. Man reaches the highest point of lovableness at 12 to 17 - to get it back, in a second flowering, at the age of 70 to 90. Swim or sink, live or die, survive or perish with my country was my unalterable determination. There isn't much that tastes better than praise from those who are wise and capable. Love is an ocean of emotions, entirely surrounded by expenses. Every true man, sir, who is a little above the level of the beasts and plants, lives so as to give a meaning and a value to his own life. What God expects us to attempt, He also enables us to achieve. The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched-they must be felt with the heart. Of all the evil spirits abroad at this hour in the world, insincerity is the most dangerous. True happiness consists in making others happy. The nice thing about egotists is that they don't talk about other people. The richer your friends, the more they will cost you. Most of the time we think we're sick it's all in the mind. If you want to be respected by others, the great thing is to respect yourself. All cities are mad: but the madness is gallant. All cities are beautiful: but the beauty is grim. The best rule of friendship is to keep your heart a little softer than your head. Man is as full of potentiality as he is of impotence.
