2 " Man is only truly great when he acts from the passions; never irresistible but when he appeals to the imagination. "
3 " Man must ever be the slave of routine: but in old days it was a routine of great thoughts, and now it is a routine of little ones. "
4 " In all things we trace the irresistible influence of the individual. "
5 " Art was to the ancient world, Science is to the modern: the distinctive faculty. In the minds of men the useful has succeeded to the beautiful. "
6 " The history of Heroes is the history of Youth. "
7 " It is a holy thing to see a state saved by its youth. "
