“Every improvement that is put upon the real estate is the result of an idea in somebody's head. The skyscraper is another idea; the railroad is another; the telephone and all those things are merely symbols which represent ideas. An andiron, a wash-tub, is the result of an idea that did not exist before.”

“If we would learn what the human race really is at bottom, we need only observe it in election times.”

“A father's a treasure; a brother's a comfort; a friend is both.”

“Never expect people to treat you any better than you treat yourself.”

“A lover teaches a wife all her husband has kept from her.”

“Wisdom accepts that all things have two sides”

“I don't care if you're black, white, straight, bisexual, gay, lesbian, short, tall, fat, skinny, rich or poor. If you're nice to me, I'll be nice to you. Simple as that.”

“Success is as dangerous as failure.Hope is as hollow as fear.What does it mean that success is a dangerous as failure?Whether you go up the ladder or down it,you position is shaky.When you stand with your two feet on the ground,you will always keep your balance.What does it mean that hope is as hollow as fear?Hope and fear are both phantomsthat arise from thinking of the self.When we don't see the self as self,what do we have to fear?See the world as your self.Have faith in the way things are.Love the world as your self;then you can care for all things.”
