Private Opinion Is Weak, But Public Opinion

Take All The Robes Of All The Good Judges That Have Ever Lived On The Face Of The Earth, And They Would Not Be Large Enough To Cover The Iniquity Of One Corrupt Judge.

Unfruitful Emotion Is To Be Suspected. Feeling Acts As An Impulse, As A Spur, As A Spring, And When Feelings Are Excited, And They Put Nothing Forward, They Are Sometimes Even Dangerous To A Man.

The Gravest Events Dawn With No More Noise Than The Morning Star Makes In Rising. All Great Developments Complete Themselves In The World And Modestly Wait In Silence, Praising Themselves Never, And Announcing Themselves Not At All. We Must Be Sensitive, And Sensible, If We Would See The Beginnings And Endings Of Great Things. That Is Our Part.

Leaves Die, But Trees Do Not. They Only Undress.

If Any Man Is Rich And Powerful He Comes Under The Law Of God By Which The Higher Branches Must Take The Burnings Of The Sun, And Shade Those That Are Lower; By Which The Tall Trees Must Protect The Weak Plants Beneath Them.
