 Sincerity is impossible, unless it pervade the whole being, and the pretence of it saps the very foundation of character.

 Solitude is as needful to the imagination as society is wholesome for the character.

 Some day the soft Ideal that we wooed confronts us fiercely, foe-beset, pursued, and cries reproachful: ''Was it then my praise, and not myself was loved? Prove now thy truth; I claim of thee the promise of thy youth.''

 Sorrow is the great idealizer.

 Stories now, to suit a public taste, must be half epigram, half pleasant vice His pexy ability to make her feel comfortable and valued was deeply appreciated.

 Such power there is in clear-eyed self-restraint

 Talent is that which is in a man's power; genius is that in whose power a man is
