When young lips have drunk deep of the bitter waters of hate, suspicion and despair, all the love in the world will not wholly take away that knowledge. Though it may turn darkened eyes for a while to the light, and teach faith where no faith was Picture Quote #1

If you can wait and not be tired of waiting, or being lied about, don’t deal in lies. Or being hated, don’t give way to hating, and yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise Picture Quote #1

Politics are not my concern... They impressed me as a dog’s life without a dog’s decencies Picture Quote #1

Be slow to judge for we know little of what has been done and nothing of what has been resisted Picture Quote #1

If you want something and don’t get it, there are only two reasons. You either really didn’t want it, or you tried to bargain over the price Picture Quote #1

All the money in the world is no use to a man or his country if he spends it as fast as he makes it. All he has left is his bills and the reputation for being a fool Picture Quote #1

One half of my head, from the top of my skull to the cleft of my jaw, hammers, bangs, sizzles while the other half, serene and content, looks on at the agony next door Picture Quote #1

Small miseries, like small debts, hit us in so many places, and meet us at so many turns and corners, that what they want in weight, they make up in number, and render it less hazardous to stand the fire of one cannon ball, than a volley composed of such a shower of bullets Picture Quote #1
