There is a courtesy of the heart it is allied to love. From its springs the purest courtesy in the outward behavior.

Dream no small dreams for they have no power to move the hearts of men.

Ignorant men raise questions that wise men answered a thousand years ago.

Girls we love for what they are young men for what they promise to be.

Men show their character in nothing more clearly than what they think laughable.

Self-knowledge comes from knowing other men.

To the person with a firm purpose all men and things are servants.

Many people take no care of their money till they come nearly to the end of it, and others do just the same with their time.

I call architecture frozen music.

Music is either sacred or secular. The sacred agrees with its dignity, and here has its greatest effect on life, an effect that remains the same through all ages and epochs. Secular music should be cheerful throughout.
