Man is always more than he can know of himself; consequently, his accomplishments, time and again, will come as a surprise to him.
All your strength is in union, all your danger is in discord.
Work is my recreation, The play of faculty; a delight like that Which a bird feels in flying, or a fish In darting through the water,--Nothing more.
And so we plough along, as the fly said to the ox.
Never idle a moment, but thrifty and thoughtful of others.
In this world a man must either be anvil or hammer.
