    The basic rule of human nature is that powerful people speak slowly and subservient people quickly—because if they don’t speak fast nobody will listen to them.
    Michael Caine [Maurice Joseph Micklewhite] (b. 1933)

    It is a great many years since at the outset of my career I had to think seriously what life had to offer that was worth having. I came to the conclusion that the chief good for me was freedom to learn, think, and say what I pleased, when I pleased. I have acted on that conviction... and though strongly, and perhaps wisely, warned that I should probably come to grief, I am entirely satisfied with the results of the line of action I have adopted.
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    He leadeth me O blessed thought,
    O words with heavenly comfort fraught,
    Whate’er I do, where’er I be,
    Still ‘tis God’s hand that leadeth me.
    —Joseph Henry Gilmore (1834–1918)
