Friendship improves happiness, and abates misery, by doubling our joys, and dividing our grief.

The grand essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, something to love and something to hope for.

Friendship improves hapiness and reduces misery, by doubting our joys and dividing our grief.

Education is a companion which no misfortune can depress, no crime can destroy, no enemy can alienate,no despotism can enslave. At home, a friend, abroad, an introduction, in solitude a solace and in society an ornament.It chastens vice, it guides virtue, it gives at once grace and government to genius.

Books are the legacies that a great genius leaves to mankind, which are delivered down from generation to generation as presents to the posterity of those who are yet unborn.

If you wish success in life, make perseverance your bosom friend, experience your wise counselor, caution your elder brother and hope your guardian genius.
