An optimist is a driver who thinks that empty space at the curb won't have a hydrant beside it.
Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all the others.
Be tolerant of the human race. Your whole family belongs to it -- and some of your spouse's family does too.
Things done well and with a care, exempt themselves from fear.
It hath often been said that it is not death but dying that is terrible.
In the end, it is the person you become, not the things you have achieved, that is the most important.
We make our fortunes and we call them fate.
Fear is a great inventor.
I know by my own pot how the others boil.
You have been my friends, replied Charlotte, that in itself is a tremendous thing...

If we live truly, we shall see truly.
The first and simplest emotion which we discover in the human mind, is curiosity.
Geniuses are the luckiest of mortals because what they must do is the same as what they most want to do.
If you have fear of those that command you, spare those that obey you.
In short, luck's always to blame.
I used to trouble about what life was for -- now being alive seems sufficient reason.
A judge who cannot punish, in the end associates themselves with the criminal.
Enjoy your happiness while you have it, and while, you have it do not too closely scrutinize its foundation.
