The
earth is mankind’s
ultimate haven, our blessed terra firma. When it trembles and gives way beneath
our feet, it’s as though
one of God’s checks has
bounced. - Lyman Abbott
Having once decided to achieve a
certain task, achieve it at all costs of tedium and distaste. The gain in self
confidence of having accomplished a tiresome labour is immense. - Arthur
Phelps
Whoever makes it
a rule to test action by thought, thought by action, cannot falter, and if he
does, will soon find his way back to the right road. - Johann Wolfgang
von Goethe
That it is
better 100 guilty persons should escape than that one innocent person should
suffer, is a maxim that has been long and generally approved. - Benjamin
Franklin
Braving
obstacles and hardships is nobler than retreat to tranquility. The butterfly
that hovers around the lamp until it dies is more admirable than the mole that
lives in a dark tunnel. - Kahlil Gibran
