"There is the same sound reason for distrusting the man who promises too much in public that there is for distrusting the man who promises too much in private business."

"I have come from the Atlantic across the continent to the Pacific; I have come from the East through the West, beyond the West, to California."

"I have not got much to say to you, because since I have been in California I have felt a good deal more like learning than teaching."

"Envy is merely the meanest form of admiration, and a man who envies another admits thereby his own inferiority."
