The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom.

When a friend is in trouble, don't annoy him by asking if there is anything you can do. Think up something appropriate and do it.

A career is wonderful, but you can't curl up with a career on a cold night.

You don't know a woman until you have had a letter from her.

When science discovers the center of the universe, a lot of people will be disappointed to find they are not it.

To fill the hour,-that is happiness.

Only a life lived for others is the life worth while.

Life was meant to be lived, and curiosity must be kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn one's back on life.

Treat us like men, and there is no danger but we will all live in peace and happiness together. For we are not like you, hard hearted, unmerciful, and unforgiving. What a happy country this will be, if the whites will listen.

Success is never final. Failure is never fatal. It s courage that counts.
