Such are thou and I: but what I am thou canst not be what thou art any one of the multitude may be.
Martial
Image
To thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man.
William Shakespeare

Our works are the mirror wherein the spirit first sees its natural lineaments. Hence, too, the folly of that impossible precept, Know theyself till it be translated into this partially possible one, know what thou canst work at.
Thomas Carlyle

Think not thou canst sigh a sigh And thy maker is not by Think not thou canst weep a tear And thy maker is not near.
William Blake
Image
If thou canst believe, all things are possible.

Seek one woman whom thou canst trust, and to her who lovest thee best, tell thy secrets. She will deliver thee from the hands of strange women, she will expose their craft and of her who flattereth thee, will she make known the reason.
Gelett Burgess
Image
But jest apart--what virtue canst thou trace In that broad trim that hides thy sober face? Does that long-skirted drab, that over-nice And formal clothing, prove a scorn of vice? Then for thine accent--what in sound can be So void of grace as dull monotony?
George Crabbe
Image
It seems that wherever the Welfare State is involved, the moral precept, Thou shalt not steal, becomes altered to say: Thou shalt not steal, except for what thou deemest to be a worthy cause, where thou thinkest that thou canst use the loot for a better purpose than wouldst the victim of the theft.
F. A. Harper
Image
See only that thou work and thou canst not escape the reward.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Image
We shall then have joy without sorrow, and rest without weariness...Be of good cheer, Christian, the time is near, when God and thou shalt be near, and as near as thou canst well desire. Thou shalt dwell in his family.
Richard Baxter
Image
Do not fancy, as too many do, that thou canst praise God by singing hymns to Him in church once a week, and disobeying Him all the week long. He asks of thee works as well as words and more, he asks of thee works first and words after.
Charles Kingsley
Image
Work and thou canst escape the reward whether the work be fine or course, planting corn or writing epics, so only it be honest work, done to thine own approbation, it shall earn a reward to the senses as well as to the thought.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Image
All those things at which thou wishest to arrive by a circuitous road, thou canst have now, if thou dost not refuse them to thyself.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Death be not proud, though some have called thee Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so. For, those, whom thou think'st thou dost overthrow. Die not, poor death, nor yet canst thou kill me.
John Donne
Image
Thou canst not serve both cod and salmon.
Ada Leverson

Give what thou canst, without Thee we are poor And with Thee rich, take what Thou wilt away.
William Cowper

Christ will bear no equal, and Satan no superior and therefore, hold in with both thou canst not.
William Gurnall
Image
All things by immortal power. Near of far, to each other linked are, that thou canst not stir a flower without troubling of a star.
Francis Thompson
Image
Be not afraid to pray--to pray is right. Pray, if thou canst, with hope but ever pray, Though hope be weak or sick with long delay Pray in the darkness, if there be no light.
Hartley Coleridge
Image
Man's word is his wand filled with magic and power! Man comes into the world financed by God, with all that he desires or requires already on his pathway. This supply is released through faith and the Spoken Word. If thou canst believe, all things are possible.
Florence Scovel Shinn
Image
Yet I did love thee to the last, As ferverently as thou, Who didst not change through all the past, And canst not alter now.
Lord Byron
