No one is so thoroughly superstitious as the godless man.
The bitterest tears shed over graves are for words left
unsaid and deeds left undone.
I am speaking now of the highest duty we owe our friends,
the noblest, the most sacred - that of keeping their own nobleness, goodness,
pure and incorrupt.
When you get into a tight place and everything goes
against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer,
never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.
