The clatter of a changing world is not pleasant, and those who have enjoyed the comforts and protection of the old order may be shocked and unhappy when they behold the vigorous young builders of a new world sweeping away their time-honored antiquities.

I look upon the whole world as my fatherland, and every war has to me the horror of a family feud.

I seldom think about my limitations, and they never make me sad. Perhaps there is just a touch of yearning at times; but it is vague, like a breeze among flowers.

The world is sown with good; but unless I turn my glad thoughts into practical living and till my own field. I cannot reap a kernel of the good.

Once I knew the depth where no hope was and darkness lay on the face of all things. Then love came and set my soul free.

What really counts in life is the quiet meeting of every difficulty with the determination to get out of it all the good there is.

Even if you have a problem, you don't need to be one.
