“The small amount of foolery wise men have makes a great show.”

“Fools pretend to foretell what will be the issue of things, and are laughed at for their awkward conjectures. Wise men being aware of the uncertainty of human aflairs, and having observed how small a matter often produces a great change, are modest in their conjectures.”

“Make no small plans. They have no magic to stir men's souls.”

“We are afraid of having and showing a small mind and we are not afraid of having and showing a small heart.”

“It is much easier to make good men wise, than to make bad men good.”

“Weak desires bring weak results, just as a small amount of fire brings a small amount of heat.”

“Men may be born free; they cannot be born wise; and it is the duty of the university to make the free wise.”

“Many small make a great.”

“The starting point of all achievement is DESIRE. Keep this constantly in mind. Weak desire brings weak results, just as a small fire makes a small amount of heat.”

“Sin which men account small brings God's great wrath on men.”
