If we would build on a sure foundation in friendship, we must love friends for their sake rather than for our own.
Subject: Friendship

The human heart has hidden treasures, In secret kept, in silence sealed; The thoughts, the hopes, the dreams, the pleasures, Whose charms were broken if revealed

A ruffled mind makes a restless pillow.

Life appears to me too short to be spent in nursing animosity, or registering wrongs.

You - poor and obscure, and small and plain as you are - I entreat to accept me as a husband.

I try to avoid looking forward or backward, and try to keep looking upward.

Look twice before you leap.

I'm just going to write because I cannot help it.

Let your performance do the thinking.

Conventionality is not morality. Self-righteousness is not religion. To attack the first is not to assail the last. To pluck the mask from the face of the Pharisee is not to lift an impious hand to the Crown of Thorns.

One does not jump, and spring, and shout hurrah! at hearing one has got a fortune, one begins to consider responsibilities, and to ponder business; on a base of steady satisfaction rise certain grave cares, and we contain ourselves, and brood over our bliss with a solemn brow.

You know full well as I do the value of sisters' affections: There is nothing like it in this world.

Reason sits firm and holds the reins, and she will not let the feelings burst away and hurry her to wild chasms. The passions may rage furiously, like true heathens, as they are; and the desires may imagine all sorts of vain things: but judgment shall still have the last word in every argument, and the casting vote in every decision.

Life is so constructed, that the event does not, cannot, will not, match the expectation.

If you are cast in a different mould to the majority, it is no merit of yours: Nature did it.

But this I know; the writer who possesses the creative gift owns something of which he is not always master something that at times strangely wills and works for itself. If the result be attractive, the World will praise you, who little deserve praise; if it be repulsive, the same World will blame you, who almost as little deserve blame.

Prejudices, it is well known, are most difficult to eradicate from the heart whose soil has never been loosened or fertilized by education; they grow firm there, firm as weeds among stones.

Consistency, madam, is the first of Christian duties.

Something of vengeance I had tasted for the first time; as aromatic wine it seemed, on swallowing, warm and racy: its after-flavor, metallic and corroding, gave me a sensation as if I had been poisoned.

Men judge us by the success of our efforts. God looks at the efforts themselves.
