Yesterday we obeyed kings and bent our necks before emperors. But today we kneel only to truth, follow only beauty, and obey only love.

And now, this is the sweetest and most glorious day that ever my eyes did see.

Great hopes make great men.

Whoever is happy will make others happy too.

As knowledge increases, wonder deepens.

Tears are often the telescope by which men see far into heaven.

It is not ignorance but knowledge which is the mother of wonder.

Gratitude is the fairest blossom which springs from the soul.

A compliment is something like a kiss through a veil.

You change your life by changing your heart.
