We should meet abuse by forbearance. Human nature ...

As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world - that is the myth of the atomic age - as in being able to remake ourselves.

Every formula of every religion has in this age of reason, to submit to the acid test of reason and universal assent.

Before the throne of the Almighty, man will be judged not by his acts but by his intentions. For God alone reads our hearts.

The upside to anger? Getting it out of your system. You got to express your anger. Then you have room for more positive things. If I hold something in a long time, and then I speak it, it's amazing how the light shines so much brighter.

Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else you are the one who gets burned.

Anybody can become angry - that is easy, but to be angry with the right person and to the right degree and at the right time and for the right purpose, and in the right way - that is not within everybody's power and is not easy.

Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured.

Youth is the gift of nature, but age is a work of art.

He who is of calm and happy nature will hardly feel the pressure of age, but to him who is of an opposite disposition youth and age are equally a burden.

The stars shall fade away, the sun himself Grow dim with age, and nature sink in years, But thou shalt flourish in immortal youth, Unhurt amidst the wars of elements, The wrecks of matter, and the crush of worlds.

To be happy, we must be true to nature and carry our age along with us.
