"The first condition of human goodness is something to love the second something to revere."

Morality

"Duty has a trick of behaving unexpectedly -- something like a heavy friend whom we have amiably asked to visit us, and who breaks his leg within our gates."

Duty

"Mysterious money had stood to him as the symbol of earthly good, and the immediate object of toil. He had seemed to love it little in the years when every penny had its purpose for him; for he loved the purpose then. But now, when all purpose was gone, that habit of looking towards the money and grasping it with a sense of fulfilled effort made a loam that was deep enough for the seeds of desire."

Materialism

"In the multitude of middle-aged men who go about their vocations in a daily course determined for them much in the same way as they tie their cravats there is always a good number who once meant to shape their own deeds and alter the world a little."

Life

"No anguish I have had to bear on your account has been too heavy a price to pay for the new life into which I have entered in loving you."

Sacrifice

"Pride helps us, and pride is not a bad thing when it only urges us to hide our own hurts-not to hurt others."

Psychology

"It is the favourite stratagem of our passions to sham a retreat, and to turn sharp round upon us at the moment we have made up our minds that the day is our own."
