Everything in the universe goes by indirection. There are no straight lines.
Make the most of yourself, for that is all there is of you.
To be great is to be misunderstood.
Truth, and goodness, and beauty are but different faces of the same all.
Each man has his own vocation; his talent is his call. There is one direction in which all space is open to him.
Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your own mind.
Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.
Build a better mousetrap and the world will beat a path to your door.
Nature is a mutable cloud which is always and never the same.
We aim above the mark to hit the mark.
