I should think you could be gladder on Monday mornin' than any other day in the week, because 'twould be a whole week before you'd have another one!

It'll be just lovely for you to play -- it'll be so hard. And there's so much more fun when it is hard!

Just breathing isn't living!

... if God took the trouble to tell us eight hundred times to be glad and rejoice, He must want us to do it—SOME.

What men and women need is encouragement. Their natural resisting powers should be strengthened, not weakened ... Instead of always harping on a man's faults, tell him of his virtues. Try to pull him out of his rut ... Hold up to him his better self, his real self that can dare and do and win out! ... People radiate what is in their minds and in their hearts.

Oh, but Aunt Polly, Aunt Polly, you haven't left me any time at all just to- to live.

... there is something about everything that you can be glad about, if you keep hunting long enough to find it.
