"I sought to hear the voice of God and climbed the topmost steeple, but God declared: "Go down again - I dwell among the people."

"A great memory does not make a mind, any more than a dictionary is a piece of literature."

"The love of our private friends is the only preparatory exercise for the love of all men."

"To live is to change, and to be perfect is to have changed often."

"I sought to hear the voice of God and climbed the topmost steeple, but God declared: "Go down again - I dwell among the people."
