Every tomorrow has two handles. We can take hold of it with the handle of anxiety or the handle of faith.
The soul without imagination is what an observatory would be without a telescope.
Well married a person has wings, poorly married shackles.
A man without ambition is worse than dough that has no yeast in it to raise it.
There was never a person who did anything worth doing that he did not receive more than he gave.
The first hour of the morning is the rudder of the day.
