“Riches are of little avail in many of the calamities to which mankind are liable.”

There is no greater folly in the world than for a man to despair.

Love is a power too strong to be overcome by anything but flight.

Can we ever have too much of a good thing?

They who lose today may win tomorrow.

How will he who does not know how to govern himself know how to govern others?

That which costs little is less valued.

Comparisons are odious.

Too much sanity may be madness and the maddest of all, to see life as it is and not as it should be.

Sleep is the best cure for waking troubles.

Many littles make a much.

My heart is wax molded as she pleases, but enduring as marble to retain.

Be slow of tongue and quick of eye.

Where there’s music there can be no evil.

It is courage that vanquishes in war, and not good weapons.

Love is invisible and comes and goes where it wants, without anyone asking about it.

Tell me what company thou keepest and I’ll tell thee what thou art.

I’ve just become quite fixated on the idea of calmness and peacefulness somewhere, someday.

The eye of the storm is the stillest part. There is calm at the centre of a cyclone. There is hush in the middle of a hurricane. The window of joy we shared was the eye of our storm.

Calm seas never made a good sailor.

Before making a decision, ask inside for guidance. Be patient and await an answer. Act only when you feel calm and certain.

To be peacemaker, you must know the peace giver.

Inner peace will calm any storm.

Be calm. God awaits you at the door.

All is said in the silence.
