In the vaunted works of Art The master-stroke is Nature's part. 5. - Ralph Waldo Emerson

If the stars should appear one night in a thousand years, how would men believe and adore, and preserve for many generations the remembrance of the city of God which had been shown! But every night come out these envoys of beauty, and light the universe with their admonishing smile.

To finish the moment, to find the journey's end in every step of the road, to live the greatest number of good hours, is wisdom.

A man's growth is seen in the successive choirs of his friends.
