True education seeks to make men and women not only good mathematicians, proficient linguists, profound scientists, or brilliant literary lights, but also honest men and women with virtue, temperance, and brotherly love.

Happiness consists not of having, but of being. It is a warm glow of the heart at peace with itself.

Character is the aim of true education; and science, history, and literature are but means used to accomplish this desired end.

It is possible to make home a bit of heaven; indeed, I picture heaven to be a continuation of the ideal home

The greatest comfort in this life is having a close relationship with God.

What-e're thou art, Act well thy part.

Happiness consists not of having, but of being; not of possessing, but of enjoying. It is a warm glow of the heart at peace with itself. A martyr at the stake may have happiness that a king on his throne might envy. Man is the creator of his own happiness. It is the aroma of life, lived in harmony with high ideals. For what a man has he may be dependent upon others; what he is rests with him alone.
