"Our strength grows out of our weakness...." - Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

“You have first an instinct, then an opinion, then a knowledge, as the plant has root, bud, and fruit.”

“Slavery is an institution for converting men into monkeys.”

“In old persons, when thus fully expressed, we often observe a fair, plump, perennial waxen complexion, which indicates that all the ferment of earlier days has subsided into serenity of thought and behavior.”

“Only those means of security are good, are certain, are lasting, that depend on yourself and your own vigor.”

“The best guide in life is strength.”

“It helps remove whatever fears or insecurities we may have and gives us the strength to cope with any obstacles we encounter. It is the principal source of success in life. Since we are not solely material creatures, it is a mistake to place all our hopes for happiness on external development alone. The key is to develop inner peace.”

“The difficulty one experiences in meeting himsa arises from weakness of mind.”

“He who has always spared himself much will in the end become sickly of so much consideration. Praised be what hardens!”

“The force of arms only reveals man s weakness.”
