People talk to people who perceive nothing, who have open eyes and see nothing; they shall talk to them and receive no answer; they shall adore those who have ears and hear nothing; they shall burn lamps for those who do not see.
It had long since come to my attention that people of accomplishment rarely sat back and let things happen to them. They went out and happened to things.
I have wasted my hours.
Time stays long enough for anyone who will use it.
Where there is shouting, there is no true knowledge.
Just as courage is the danger of life, so is fear its safeguard.
