“Before we acquire great power we must acquire wisdom to use it well.”

“The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn.”

“The only way to have a friend is to be one.”

“The condition which high friendship demands is the ability to do without it.”

“A man's growth is seen in the successive choirs of his friends.”
