For society, of all places I have ever been, Norwich is the best.

No distance of place or lapse of time can lessen the friendship of those who are thoroughly persuaded of each other's worth.

Mild arch of promise! on the evening sky Thou shinest fair with many a lovely ray, Each in the other melting.

There is a magic in that little world, home; it is a mystic circle that surrounds comforts and virtues never know beyond its hallowed limits.

Cupid "the little greatest god."

By writing much, one learns to write well.

Live as long as you may, the first twenty years are the longest half of your life.

Order is the sanity of the mind, the health of the body, the peace of the city, the security of the state. As the beams to a house, as the bones to the microcosm of man, so is order to all things.

All deception in the course of life is indeed nothing else but a lie reduced to practice, and falsehood passing from words into things.

Let us depart! the universal sun Confines not to one land his blessed beams; Nor is man rooted, like a tree, whose seed, the winds on some ungenial soil have cast there, where it cannot prosper.

People do not always argue because they misunderstand one another, they argue because they hold different goals.
