If enough people think of a thing and work hard enough at it, I guess it's pretty nearly bound to happen, wind and weather permitting.

I am not discouraged because every wrong attempt discarded is a step forward.

I've chosen the work I want to do. If I find no joy in it, then I'm only condemning myself to sixty years of torture.

Conquer yourself and the whole universe is yours.

There is no love sincerer than the love of food.

To every action there is always opposed an equal reaction.

Loss is nothing else but change, and change is Natures delight.
