Henrik Ibsen quotes
A community is like a ship; everyone ought to be prepared to take the helm.
A forest bird never wants a cage.

Money may be the husk of many things, but not the kernel. It brings you food, but not appetite; medicine, but not health; acquaintances, but not friends; servants, but not faithfulness; days of joy, but not peace and happiness.
Never wear your best trousers when you go out to fight for freedom and truth.
