I lay it down as a fact that if all men knew what others say of them, there would not be four friends in the world
French mathematician, physicist, inventor, writer and Catholic theologian.
It is man's natural sickness to believe that he possesses the truth
Few friendships would survive if each one knew what his friend says of him behind his back
Dull minds are never either intuitive or mathematical
I would prefer an intelligent hell to a stupid paradise
Kind words don't cost much. Yet they accomplish much
To make light of philosophy is to be a true philosopher
A friend cannot be considered a friend until he is tested in three occasions: in time of need, behind your back, and after your death,
The art of knowing is knowing what to ignore
Rise above sectional interests and private ambitions... Pass from matter to spirit. Matter is diversity; spirit is light, life and unity
Nothing hurts a good soul and a kind heart more than to live amongst people who cannot understand it
O Contentment, make me rich! for without thee there is no wealth
Judge a man by his questions rather than by his answers
