The true test of a character is to face hard conditions with the determination to make them better.

When we do the best that we can, we never know what miracle is wrought in our life, or in the life of another.

When we complain of having to do the same thing over and over, let us remember that God does not send new trees, strange flowers and different grasses every year. When the spring winds blow, they blow in the same way. In the same places the same dear blossoms lift up the same sweet faces, yet they never weary us. When it rains, it rains as it always has. Even so would the same tasks which fill our daily lives put on new meanings if we wrought them in the spirit of renewal from within--a spirit of growth and beauty.

Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than exposure.

Be heroes in an army of construction.

I do not mean to object to a thorough knowledge of the famous works we read. I object only to the interminable comments and bewildering criticisms that teach but one thing: there are as many opinions as there are men.

College isn't the place to go for ideas.
