Cecil's Dispatch Of Business Was

Diligence, Above All, Is The Mother Of Good Luck.

Imitation Is For The Most Part So Unconscious That Its Effects Are Almost Unheeded, But Its Influence Is Not The Less Permanent On That Account. It Is Only When An Impressive Nature Is Placed In Contact With An Impressionable One That The Alteration In The Character Becomes Recognizable. Yet Even The Weakest Natures Exercise Some Influence Upon Those About Them. The Approximation Of Feeling, Thought, And Habit Is Constant, And The Action Of Example Unceasing.

No Laws, However Stringent, Can Make The Idle Industrious, The Thriftless Provident, Or The Drunken Sober.

It Is A Mistake To Suppose That Men Succeed Through Success; They Much Oftener Succeed Through Failures. Precept, Study, Advice, And Example Could Never Have Taught Them So Well As Failure Has Done.

Sympathy Is The Golden Key That Unlocks The Hearts Of Others.
