 We lay aside letters never to read them again, and at last we destroy them out of discretion, and so disappears the most beautiful, the most immediate breath of life, irrecoverable for ourselves and for others. |
| We must always change, renew, rejuvenate ourselves; otherwise we harden |
| We must not take the faults of our youth with us into old age, for age brings along its own defects. |
| We usually lose today, because there has been a yesterday, and tomorrow is coming. |
| We will burn that bridge when we come to it. |
| Wealth and speed are what the world admires, what each pursues. Railways, express mails, steamships and every possible facility for communications are the achievement in which the civilized world view and revels, only to languish in mediocrity by that very fact. Indeed, the effect of this diffusion is to spread the culture of the mediocre. |
| Wealth lost is something lost, honor lost is something lost: Courage lost all is lost. |
| What by a straight path cannot be reached by crooked ways is never won. |
| What chance gathers she easily scatters. A great person attracts great people and knows how to hold them together. |
| What does not kill me makes me stronger. |
| What have they done to you, my poor child? |
| What I possess I would gladly retain, change amuses the mind, yet scarcely profits |
| What is hardest of all? That which seems most simple: to see with your eyes what is before your eyes |
| What is important in life is life, and not the result of life. |
| What is my life if I am no longer useful to others. |
