“Complete independence does not mean arrogant isolation or a superior disdain for all help.”

“Ugly deeds are most estimable when hidden.”

“He does not seek power - yet people follow him.”

“When I want to think about what would be the right thing to do, the fair thing to do, the wise thing to do, I can just think of my grandmother. I can always hear her say, "Now sister, you know what's right. Just do right!"”

“A right judgment draws us a profit from all things we see .”
