QUOTES

If you have knowledge, let others light their candles at it.

Men for the sake of getting a living forget to live.

Only the dreamer shall understand realities

Would that the simple maxim, that honesty is the best policy, might be laid to heart; that a sense of the true aim of life might elevate the tone of politics and trade till public and private honor become identical.
