Better by far you should forget and smile than you should remember and be sad.
How we remember, what we remember and why we remember form the most personal map of our individuality.
Our deeds determine us, as much as we determine our deeds.

Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'Press On' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.
The dead might as well try to speak to the living as the old to the young.
Men are equal; it is not birth but virtue that makes the difference.
