“How can he [today's writer] be honored, when he does not honor himself; when he loses himself in the crowd; when he is no longer the lawgiver, but the sycophant, ducking to the giddy opinion of a reckless public.”

“A man must be in sympathy with society around him, or else, not wish to be in sympathy with it. If neither of these two, he must be wretched.”

“The moral sense is always supported by the permanent interest of the parties. Else, I know not how, in our world, any good would ever get done.”

“One always speaks badly when one has nothing to say.”

“Eloquence: saying the proper thing and stopping.”

“There is not only an art, but an eloquence in it.”

“We are all salesman regardless of our calling. But not all of us are Master Salesmen.”

“It would probably astound each of them beyond measure to be let into his neighbor's mind and to find how different the scenery there was from that in his own.”

“Truth has already ceased to be itself if polemically said.”
