Abiding happiness is not simply a possibility, but a duty; that all may live above the troubles of life; that worry is a poison and happiness a medicine.

Friendship warms like a sunbeam; charms like a good story; inspires like a brave leader; binds like a golden chain; guides like a heavenly vision.

Man must make his choice between ease and wealth; either may be his, but not both.

Our world is a college, events are teachers, happiness is the graduating point, character is the diploma God gives man.

Abiding happiness is not simply a possibility, but a duty; that all may live above the troubles of life; that worry is a poison and happiness a medicine.

Give thy mind to books and libraries, and the literature and lore of the ages will give thee the wisdom of sage and seer.

Only when the heart loves can the intellect do great work.
