It would be madness, and inconsistency, to suppose that things which have never yet been performed can be performed without employing some hitherto untried means.

Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present.

Every man takes the limits of his own vision for the limits of the world.

The world is dying of machinery; that is the great disease, that is the plague that will sweep away and destroy civilization; man will have to rise against it sooner or later.

Every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future.
