"Every man is a moon; he has..." - Quote by Mark Twain

“The physician who knows only medicine, knows not even medicine.”

“There has been much tragedy in my life; at least half of it actually happened.”

“My heart goes out to anyone who is making his first appearance before an audience of human beings.”

“Man is but the place where I stand.”

“I am one thing, my writings are another.”

“You only know me as you see me, not as I actually am”

“The discoveries which we make abroad are special and particular; those which we make at home are general and significant. The further off, the nearer the surface. The nearer home, the deeper.”

“But who knows what she spoke to the darkness, alone, in the bitter watches of the night, when all her life seemed shrinking, and the walls of her bower closing in about her, a hutch to trammel some wild thing in?”

“You fail in your thoughts, or you prevail in your thoughts only.”
