"A great mind becomes a great fortune"

"It is a useless life that is not consecrated to a great ideal. It is like a stone wasted on the field without becoming a part of any edifice"

"Behind every great fortune lies a great crime"

"Fortune brings in some boats that are not steered"

"Be not afraid of greatness: some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them"

"Men are only as great as they are kind"

"He's by best friend and the father of my children. He's a great ex"

"There is a tide in the affairs of men, Which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. Omitted, all the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat. And we must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures"

"The only way to do great work is to love what you do"

"To be really great in little things, to be truly noble and heroic in the insipid details of everyday life, is a virtue so rare as to be worthy of canonization"

"Having soon discovered to be great, I must appear so, and therefore studiously avoided mixing in society, and wrapped myself in mystery, devoting my time to fasting and prayer"
