Popularity Is Neither Fame Nor Greatness.

A Proud Man Is Satisfied With His Own Good Opinion, And Does Not Seek To Make Converts To It.

I Like A Person Who Knows His Own Mind And Sticks To It; Who Sees At Once What Is To Be Done In Given Circumstances And Does It. He Does Not Beat About The Bush For Difficulties Or Excuses, But Goes The Shortest And Most Effectual Way To Work To Attain His Own Ends, Or To Accomplish A Useful Object.

Popularity Disarms Envy In Well-disposed Minds. Those Are Ever The Most Ready To Do Justice To Others Who Feel That The World Has Done Them Justice. When Success Has Not This Effect In Opening The Mind, It Is A Sign That It Has Been Ill Deserved.

A Grave Blockhead Should Always Go About With A Lively One - They Show One Another Off To The Best Advantage.

It Is The Vice Of Scholars To Suppose That There Is No Knowledge In The World But That Of Books.
