All ancient books which have once been called sacred by man, will have their lasting place in the history of mankind, and those who possess the courage, the perseverance, and the self-denial of the true miner, and of the true scholar, will find even in the darkest and dustiest shafts what they are seeking for,--real nuggets of thought, and precious jewels of faith and hope.
Nothing can take the place of persistence.

happiness as well as misery. Enrich your mind by understanding this and
improve, gaining stability thereby.

Inside of a ring or out, ain't nothing wrong with going down. It's staying down that's wrong.
Do not be daunted by the enormity of the world's grief. Do justly, now. Love mercy, now. Walk humbly, now. You are not obligated to complete the work, but neither are you free to abandon it.
