"Truth is the summit of being, justice is the application of it to affairs."
Justice
"It is a secret which every intellectual man quickly learns, that, beyond the energy of his possessed and conscious intellect, he is capable of a new energy (as of an intellect doubled on itself), by abandonment to the nature of things; that, beside his privacy of power as an individual man, there is a great public power, on which he can draw, by unlocking, at all risks, his human doors, and suffering the ethereal tides to roll and circulate through him: then is he caught up into the life of the Universe, his speech is thunder, his thought is law, and his words are universally intelligible as the plants and animals."

I replied, 'They do not seem to me to be such; but if I am the devil's child, I will live them from the devil."
Philosophy

Love
"A great part of courage is the courage of having done the thing before."
