Study lends a kind of enchantment to all our surroundings.
The smallest flower is a thought, a life answering to some feature of the Great Whole, of whom they have a persistent intuition.
When you doubt your power, you give power to your doubt.
The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness.
It is as absurd to say that a man can't love one woman all the time as it is to say that a violinist needs several violins to play the same piece of music.
All humanity is passion; without passion, religion, history, novels, art would be ineffectual.
Passion is universal humanity. Without it religion, history, romance and art would be useless.
When Religion and Royalty are swept away, the people will attack the great, and after the great, they will fall upon the rich.
One should believe in marriage as in the immortality of the soul.
A good husband is never the first to go to sleep at night or the last to awake in the morning.
