Thus I came up out of Egypt and stood before Sinai, and a power divine touched my spirit and gave it sight, so that I beheld many wonders. And from the sacred mountain I heard a voice which said, ‘Knowledge is love and light and vision.

As selfishness and complaint pervert the mind, so love with its joy clears and sharpens the vision.

When we do the best we can, we never know what miracles await.

Words are the mind's wings, are they not?

I, for one, love strength, daring, fortitude. I do not want people to kill the fight in them; I want them to fight for right things.

Each day comes to me with both hands full of possibilities.

Many of us delude ourselves with the thought that if we could stand in the lot of our more fortunate neighbor, we could live better, happier and more useful lives. ... It is my experience that unless we can succeed in our present position, we could not succeed in any other.
