Habit is the beneficent harness of routine which enables silly men to live respectfully and unhappy men to live calmly
George EliotIn spite of his practical ability, some of his experience had petrified into maxims and quotations.
George EliotMay every soul that touches mine - be it the slightest contact - get there from some good; some little grace; one kindly thought; one aspiration yet unfelt; one bit of courage for the darkening sky; one gleam of faith to brave the thickening ills of life; one glimpse of brighter skies beyond the gathering mists - to make this life worthwhile.
