Coffee Is Good For Talent, But Genius

Cultivate The Habit Of Being Grateful... And ...give Thanks Continuously.

A Man Must Thank His Defects, And Stand In Some Terror Of His Talents.

Go Face The Fire At Sea, Or The Cholera In Your Friend's House, Or The Burglar In Your Own, Or What Danger Lies In The Way Of Duty, Knowing You Are Guarded By The Cherubim Of Destiny. If You Believe In Fate To Your Harm, Believe It, At Least, For Your Good.

Eloquence Must Be Grounded On The Plainest Narrative.

Good Poetry Could Not Have Been Otherwise Written Than It Is. The First Time You Hear It, It Sounds Rather As If Copied Out Of Some Invisible Tablet In The Eternal Mind Than As If Arbitrarily Composed By The Poet.
