• Conventionality is not morality. Self-righteousness is not religion. To attack the first is not to assail the last.
• A ruffled mind makes a restless pillow.
• Feeling without judgement is a washy draught indeed but judgement untempered by feeling is too bitter and husky a morsel for human deglutition.
• No mockery in the world ever sounds to me as hollow as that of being told to cultivate happiness Happiness is not a potato, to be planted in mould, and tilled with manure.

• Prejudices, it is well known, are most difficult to eradicate from the heart whose soil has never been loosened or fertilized by education they grow there, firm as weeds among rocks.
• Men judge us by the success of our efforts. God looks at the efforts themselves.
• Cheerfulness, it would appear, is a matter which depends fully as much on the state of things within, as on the state of things without and around us.
