"I have often been asked, Do not people bore you? I do not understand quite what that means. I suppose the calls of the stupid and curious, especially of newspaper reporters, are always inopportune. I also dislike people who try to talk down to my understanding. They are like people who when walking with you try to shorten their steps to suit yours; the hypocrisy in both cases is equally exasperating."
"When we do the best we can, we never know what miracle is wrought in our life, or in the life of another."
"Of all the senses, sight must be the most delightful."
"Many people have the wrong idea of what constitutes true happiness. It is not attained through self-gratification, but through fidelity to a worthy purpose."
"The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart."
