The best portion of a good man's life is his little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and of love.

In modern business it is not the crook who is to be feared most, it is the honest man who doesn't know what he is doing.

When from our better selves we have too long been parted by the hurrying world, and droop. Sick of its business, of its pleasures tired, how gracious, how benign is solitude.

The child is father of the man.

Faith is a passionate intuition.
