There cannot be perfect civilization until Man realizes that the rights of every living creature are as sacred as his own.

Wisdom is knowing. Skill is know how to do it. Virtue is doing it.

To say no at the right time, and then stand by it, is the first element of success. He is the wise man who, for all his life, can keep mind and soul and body clean.

Whatever you attempt, go at it with spirit.

Whatever is not nailed down is mine." This is the motto of the exploiter. "Whatever can be pried loose is not nailed down." This is the second maxim in a country where people are rich, caring little in their present prosperity what shall become of the future.

Someday, someone will walk into your life and make you realize why it never worked out with anyone else. Wisdom is knowing what to do next; virtue is doing it.

The problem of life is not to make life easier, but to make men stronger.

There is no pleasure in life equal to that of the conquest of a vicious habit.

No one can afford to look downward for his enjoyments.

Rome endured as long as there were Romans. America will endure as long as we remain American in spirit and in thought.
