Life Is Of Little Value Unless It

Progress However, Of The Best Kind, Is Comparatively Slow. Great Results Cannot Be Achieved At Once; And We Must Be Satisfied To Advance In Life As We Walk, Step By Step.

Whatever Is Done For Men Takes Away From The Stimulus And Necessity Of Doing Things For Themselves. The Value Of Legislative As An Agent In Human Advancement Has Been Much Over-estimated. No Laws, However Stringent, Can Make The Idle Industrious, The Thriftless Provident Or The Drunken Sober.

Self-control Is Only Courage Under Another Form.

Labor Is Still, And Ever Will Be, The Inevitable Price Set Upon Everything Which Is Valuable.

Although Genius Always Commands Admiration, Character Most Secures Respect. The Former Is More The Product Of The Brain, The Latter Of Heart-power; And In The Long Run It Is The Heart That Rules In Life.
