The rain comes and what bends will rise. It is a purposeful journey.

To know fulfillment, nourish what is for the belly and not the eye.

No man undertakes a trade he has not learned, even the meanest; yet everyone thinks himself sufficiently qualified for the hardest of all trades, that of government.

Those people who will not be governed by God will be ruled by tyrants.

We perceive and are affected by changes too subtle to be described.

Loyalty to the country always. Loyalty to the government when it deserves it.

I have never found a companion that was so companionable as solitude.

With a burst of joy, my heels sprout wings, smile dancing. My heart sings like a bird caged, set free to soar, senses heightened like never before. Life. Is. Good.

A woman is a woman, but a good cigar is a smoke.

No real gentleman will tell the naked truth in the presence of ladies.

Any coward can fight a battle when he’s sure of winning, but give me the man who has pluck to fight when he’s sure of losing. That’s my way, sir; and there are many victories worse than a defeat.

Good breeding, a union of kindness and independence.

It is not what we eat but what we digest that makes us strong; not what we gain but what we save that makes us rich; not what we read but what we remember that makes us learned; and not what we profess but what we practice that gives us integrity.

Energy doesn’t lie so trust those vibes you’re getting.

I have been brought up and trained to have the utmost contempt for people who get drunk.

Necessity, who is the mother of invention.

If your mind isn’t clouded by unnecessary things, this is the best season of your life.
