“One is seldom unchanged by the death of those one loves. It gives me a deeper knowledge of them, and so of oneself in regard to them.”
“What life gives us, good or bad, we seldom deserve.”
“I give myself very good advice, but I very seldom follow it.”
“A good name is seldom regained. When character is gone, all is gone, and one of the richest jewels of life is lost.”
