How vain it is to sit down to write when you have not stood up to live
American essayist, poet, philosopher, abolitionist, naturalist, tax resister, development critic, surveyor, yogi, and historian.
Courtesy costs nothing, but buys everything
It is better to live one day as a lion than 100 years as a sheep
Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know
The authority of those who teach is often an obstacle to those who want to learn
The best deed of a great man is to forgive and forget
A man of virtue, judgment, and prudence speaks not until there is silence
