Every action of our lives touches on some chord that will vibrate in eternity.

No more duty can be urged upon those who are entering the great theater of life than simple loyalty to their best convictions.

"Through every rift of discovery some seeming anomaly drops out of the darkness, and falls, as a golden link into the great chain of order."

"Fashion is the science of appearances, and it inspires one with the desire to seem rather than to be."

At the bottom of a good deal of the bravery that appears in the world there lurks a miserable cowardice. Men will face powder and steel because they cannot face public opinion.
