Persevere towards those objectives which are lighted for us by all the wisdom and inspiration of the past.

I always seem to get inspiration and renewed vitality by contact with this great novel land of yours which sticks up out of the Atlantic.

Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may be; for without victory there is no survival.

Pain and suffering have come into your life, but remember pain, sorrow, suffering are but the kiss of Jesus - a sign that you have come so close to Him that He can kiss you.

When the suffering of another creature causes you to feel pain, do not submit to the initial desire to flee from the suffering one, but on the contrary, come closer, as close as you can to her who suffers, and try to help her.

The greater the state, the more wrong and cruel its patriotism, and the greater is the sum of suffering upon which its power is founded.
