Knowledge Is Essential To Freedom.

Mistakes And Errors Are The Discipline Through Which We Advance.

Science And Art May Invent Splendid Modes Of Illuminating The Apartments Of The Opulent; But These Are All Poor And Worthless Compared With The Common Light Which The Sun Sends Into All Our Windows, Which He Pours Freely, Impartially Over Hill And Valley, Which Kindles Daily The Eastern And Western Sky; And So The Common Lights Of Reason, And Conscience, And Love, Are Of More Worth And Dignity Than The Rare Endowments Which Give Celebrity To A Few.

Be True To Your Own Highest Convictions.

The Domestic Relations Precede, And In Our Present Existence Are Worth More Than All Our Other Social Ties. They Give The First Throb To The Heart, And Unseal The Deep Fountains Of Its Love. Home Is The Chief School Of Human Virtue. Its Responsibilities, Joys, Sorrows, Smiles, Tears, Hopes, And Solicitudes Form The Chief Interest Of Human Life.

In The Long Run, Truth Is Aided By Nothing So Much As By Opposition.
