Let us act on what we have, since we have not what we wish.
The armored cars of dreams, contrived to let us do so many a dangerous thing.
In every author let us distinguish the man from his works.
Let us banish fear.
Civilizations are built by the ceaseless toil of a succession of generations. With softness and sloth, civilizations succumb. Let us beware of decadence.
Let us move from the era of confrontation to the era of negotiation.
Let us be moral. Let us contemplate existence.
It is convenient that there be gods, and, as it is convenient, let us believe there are.
Let us not pray to be sheltered from dangers but to be fearless when facing them.
Let us not be too particular; it is better to have old secondhand diamonds than none at all.
Let us consider the critic, therefore, as a discoverer of discoveries.
Truth is the most valuable thing we have. Let us economize it.
If we are not our brother's keeper, at least let us not be his executioner.
Wherever the fates lead us let us follow.
Let us be silent, that we may hear the whispers of the gods.
Let us have no machine-made ornament at all; it is all bad and worthless and ugly.
Instead of noblemen, let us have noble villages of men.
