“The happiest youth, viewing his progress through,What perils past, what crosses to ensue,Would shut the book, and sit him down and die.”

“Everything psychic is pregnant with the future.”

“I think if you do something and it turns out pretty good, then you should go do something else wonderful, not dwell on it for too long. Just figure out what's next.”

“The expenses required to prevent a war are much lighter than those that will, if not prevented, be absolutely necessary to maintain it.”

“I believe in the old and sound rule that an ounce of sweat will save a gallon of blood.”

“It is easier to prevent bad habits than to break them.”
