Weakness

Bashfulness is an ornament to youth, but a reproach to old age

Information's pretty thin stuff unless mixed with experience

The doctor sees all the weakness of mankind; the lawyer all the wickedness, the theologian all the stupidity

Men have as exaggerated an idea of their rights as women have of their wrongs

People who keep dogs are cowards who haven't got the guts to bite people themselves

Our disputants put me in mind of the scuttle fish, that when he is unable to extricate himself, blackens all the water about him, till he becomes invisible

The most happy marriage I can imagine to myself would be the union of a deaf man to a blind woman.

Strengthen me by sympathizing with my strength, not my weakness

It's a matter of taking the side of the weak against the strong, something the best people have always done

The same vices that are gross and insupportable in others we do not notice in ourselves

Jesting is often only indigence of intellect

The university brings out all abilities, including incapability

A teacher who is not dogmatic is simply a teacher who is not teaching

How you think when you lose determines how long it will be until you win

The more a man can forget, the greater the number of metamorphoses which his life can undergo, the more he can remember the more divine his life becomes

There is not a fiercer hell than the failure in a great object

Female personality is insubstantiality ennobled by unconsciousness

A weak man has doubts before a decision; a strong man has them afterwards

We grow gray in our spirit long before we grow gray in our hair.

Vision without action is a daydream. Action without a vision is a nightmare.
