No evil dooms us hopelessly except the evil we love, and desire to continue in, and make no effort to escape from.

"Words dont limit who we are"

Through our great good fortune, in our youth our hearts were touched with fire. It was given us to learn at the outset that life is a profound and passionate thing. While we are permitted to scorn nothing but indifference, and do not pretend to undervalue the worldly rewards of ambition, we have seen with our own eyes, beyond and above the gold fields, the snowy heights of honor, and it is for us to bear the report to those who come after us.

I die adoring God, loving my friends, not hating my enemies, and detesting superstition.

Only he who can see the invisible can do the impossible.

I sometimes hold it half a sin, To put in words the grief I feel. For words, like nature, half reveal, And half conceal the soul within.
