Law represents the effort of man to organize society; governments, the efforts of selfishness to overthrow liberty.

Regjering

Every man should keep a fair-sized cemetery in which to bury the faults of his friends.

God appoints our graces to be nurses to other men's weaknesses.

Gud

A tool is but the extension of a man's hand, and a machine is but a complex tool. And he that invents a machine augments the power of a man and the well-being of mankind.

“By Labor the North has subdued Nature, changed a parsimonious soil to fertility, built dwellings for almost her whole population, raised the school-house, established the Church, encircled the globe with her ships, and made her books and her papers to be as blades of grass and as leave of the Summer for number. But in the South, labor, a badge of shame, is the father of misery. The slave labors, but with no cheer—it is not the road to respectability, it will honor him with no citizens’ trust, it brings no bread to his family, no grain to his garner, no leisure in after-days, no books or papers to his children. It opens no school-house door, builds no church, rears for him no factory, lays no keel, fills no bank, earns no acres. With sweat and toil and ignorance he consumes his life, to pour the earnings into channels from which he does no drink, into hands that never honor him. But perpetually rob and often torment.”

Slave

I never knew an early-rising, hard-working, prudent man, careful of his earnings, and strictly honest who complained of bad luck.

There is no greater crime than to stand between a man and his development; to take any law or institution and put it around him like a collar, and fasten it there, so that as he grows and enlarges, he presses against it till he suffocates and dies.

Our best successes often come after our greatest disappointments.

Liberty is the soul's right to breathe.

Rain! whose soft architectural hands have power to cut stones, and chisel to shapes of grandeur the very mountains.

The strength of a man consists in finding out the way God is going, and going that way.

Menn

Living is death; dying is life. We are not what we appear to be. On this side of the grave we are exiles, on that citizens; on this side orphans, on that children;

Living

You cannot forget if you would those golden kisses all over the cheeks of the meadow, queerly called dandelions.

It is not merely cruelty that leads men to love war, it is excitement

There is no faculty of the human soul so persistent and universal as that of hatred
