Power

We look forward to the time when the power to love will replace the love of power. Then will our world know the blessings of peace

For where the instrument of intelligence is added to brute power and evil will, mankind is powerless in its own defense

Love is energy of life.

There are only two ways of getting on in the world either by one's own industry, or by the stupidity of others

And while the law (of competition) may be sometimes hard for the individual, it is best for the race, because it ensures the survival of the fittest in every department

There is nothing with which every man is so afraid as getting to know how enormously much he is capable of doing and becoming

Pessimism leads to weakness, optimism to power.

Love conquers all

It is the true season of love when we know that we alone can love, that no one could ever have loved before us, and that no one will ever love in the same way after us.

Character is power

The power of doing anything with quickness is always prized much by the possessor, and often without any attention to the imperfection of the performance.

None who have always been free can understand the terrible fascinating power of the hope of freedom to those who are not free

The man who acquires the ability to take full possession of his own mind may take possession of anything else to which he is justly entitled

The greatest works are done by the ones. The hundreds do not often do much, the companies never; it is the units, the single individuals, that are the power and the might.

Only love is not enough any more for remaining nearness. Today you need all your mind for a wonderful marriage. Stop in our hectic times deliberately and daily getting power only for both of you

There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than 10,000 tongues. They are the messengers of overwhelming grief, of deep contrition, and of unspeakable love

The bitterest creature under heaven is the wife who discovers that her husband's bravery is only bravado, that his strength is only a uniform, that his power is but a gun in the hands of a fool.
