“Nor love thy life, nor hate; but what thou livest, Live well; how long, or short, permit to Heaven.”

None can love freedom heartily, but good men; the rest love not freedom, but license.

Gratitude bestows reverence, allowing us to encounter everyday epiphanies, those transcendent moments of awe that change forever how we experience life and the world.

When we speak of knowing God, it must be understood with reference to man’s limited powers of comprehension. God, as He really is, is far beyond man’s imagination, let alone understanding. God has revealed only so much of Himself as our minds can conceive and the weakness of our nature can bear.

Peace hath her victories, no less renowned than War.

The childhood shows the man, as morning shows the day.

Never can true reconcilement grow where wounds of deadly hate have pierced so deep.

Most men admire Virtue who follow not her lore.

Truth is as impossible to be soiled by any outward touch as the sunbeam.

As therefore the state of man now is, what wisdom can there be to choose, what continence to forbear, without the knowledge of good and evil?

Solitude sometimes is best society.

Better to reign in hell than serve in heav’n.

Hell has no benefits, only torture.

Good, the more communicated, more abundant grows.

All is not lost, the unconquerable will, and study of revenge, immortal hate, and the courage never to submit or yield.

Time will run back and fetch the Age of Gold.

Gratitude bestows reverence…..changing forever how we experience life and the world.

I’ve been hated by many, wanted by plenty, disliked by some, but confronted by none.

When somebody says something about me I hate them for the rest of my life. It’s probably wrong.

If you end up falling in love with someone, it’s because of them. If you end up hating someone, it’s because of you.

To die hating them, that was freedom.

Hatred, which could destroy so much, never failed to destroy the man who hated, and this was an immutable law.

I hated every minute of training, but I said, Don’t quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.

Who love too much, hate in the like extreme.

A man receiving charity always hates his benefactor- it is a fixed characteristic of human nature.
