- I long to accomplish a great and noble task, but it is my chief duty to accomplish small tasks as if they were great and noble.

- One can never consent to creep when one feels an impulse to soar.
- Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence.

- Until the great mass of the people shall be filled with the sense of responsibility for each other’s welfare, social justice can never be attained.
- What we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.
