Time is precious, but truth is more precious than time. - Benjamin Disraeli

"Through perseverance many people win success out of what seemed destined to be certain failure."

"A great city, whose image dwells in the memory of man, is the type of some great idea. Rome represents conquest; Faith hovers over the towers of Jerusalem; and Athens embodies the pre-eminent quality of the antique world, Art."

"I am prepared for the worst, but hope for the best."

"When men are pure, laws are useless; when men are corrupt, laws are broken."

"The secret of success is constancy to purpose."
