The whole of the day should not be daytime; there should be one hour, if not more, which the day did not bring forth.
The present hour is always wealthiest when it is poorer than the future ones, as that is the pleasantest site which affords the pleasantest prospect.
Follow your genius closely enough, and it will not fail to show you a fresh prospect every hour.
Every man is tasked to make his life, even in its details, worthy of the contemplation of his most elevated and critical hour.
