“In order to be irreplaceable one must always be different.”

Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.

Better pass boldly into that other world, in the full glory of some passion.

I think somehow we learn who we really are and then live with that decision.

We could never learn to be brave and patient if there were only joy in the world.

Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.

If you can't excel with talent, triumph with effort.
