Keep silence for the most part, and speak only when you must, and then briefly.

Hope springs eternal in the human breast.

Truth is established by reason and scripture, not by force.

Wicked people are always surprised to find ability in those that are good.

Be kind to all creatures, This is the true religion.

Everything has its wonders, even darkness and silence, and I learn, whatever state I may be in, therein to be content.
