“A good conscience is eight parts of courage.”

“Keep your fears to yourself, but share your courage with others.”

“Everyday courage has few witnesses. But yours is no less noble because no drum beats for you and no crowds shout your name.”

“Partly from the damping influence of this alarm, partly to rest Silver and the sick folk, the whole party sat down as soon as they had gained the brow of the ascent.”

“In every part and corner of our life, to lose oneself is to be a gainer; to forget oneself is to be happy.”

“Lord, behold our family here assembled. We thank You for this place in which we dwell, for the love accorded us this day, for the hope with which we expect the morrow; for the health, the work, the food and the bright skies that make our lives delightful; for our friends in all parts of the earth. Give us courage and gaiety and the quiet mind. Spare us to our friends, soften us to our enemies. Bless us, if it may be, in all our innocent endeavors; if it may not, give us strength to endure that which is to come that we may be brave in peril, constant in tribulation, temperate in wrath and in all changes of fortune and down to the gates of death, loyal and loving to one another. We beseech of you this help and mercy for Christ's sake.”

“For my part, i travel not to go anywhere but to go. I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move”
