I like the silent church before the service begins, better than any preaching.
Great geniuses have the shortest biographies.
The reward of a thing well done is having done it.
The faith that stands on authority is not faith.
No change of circumstances can repair a defect of character.
Love of beauty is taste. The creation of beauty is art.
Nature always wears colours of the spirit.
God enters by a private door into every individual.
Beauty is the virtue of the body as virtue is the beauty of the soul.
We don’t count a man’s years, until he has nothing else to count.
