What induces a child to learn but his delight in knowing?

Doubts and mistrust are the mere panic of timid imagination, which the steadfast heart will conquer, and the large mind transcend.

Do not think of to-day's failures, but of the success that may come tomorrow.

There is no better way to thank God for your sight than by giving a helping hand to someone in the dark.

I sometimes wonder if the hand is not more sensitive to the beauties of sculpture than the eye. I should think the wonderful rhythmical flow of lines and curves could be more subtly felt than seen. Be this as it may, I know that I can feel the heart-throbs of the ancient Greeks in their marble gods and goddesses.

Knowledge is love and light and vision.

It gives me a deep comforting sense that Things seen are temporal and things unseen are eternal.
