To Swear, Except When Necessary, Is Becoming

When We Cannot Hope To Win, It Is An Advantage To Yield.

Give Me The Boy Who Rouses When He Is Praised, Who Profits When He Is Encouraged And Who Cries When He Is Defeated. Such A Boy Will Be Fired By Ambition; He Will Be Stung By Reproach, And Animated By Preference; Never Shall I Apprehend Any Bad Consequences From Idleness In Such A Boy.

Those Who Wish To Appear Learned To Fools, Appear As Fools To The Learned.

Though Ambition May Be A Fault In Itself, It Is Often The Mother Of Virtues.

It Seldom Happens That A Premature Shoot Of Genius Ever Arrives At Maturity.
