"We judge ourselves by what we feel capable of doing, while others judge us by what we have already done."

"Ships that pass in the night, and speak each other in passing, only a signal shown, and a distant voice in the darkness; So on the ocean of life, we pass and speak one another, only a look and a voice, then darkness again and a silence."

"Every man has his secret sorrows which the world knows not; and often times we call a man cold when he is only sad."

"The dawn is not distant, nor is the night starless; love is eternal."

"Perseverance is a great element of success. If you only knock long enough and loud enough at the gate, you are sure to wake up somebody."
