Some people are so afraid do die that they never begin to live.

The woods would be quiet if no bird sang but the one that sang best.

One truly affectionate soul in a family will evert a sweetening and harmonizing influence upon all its members.

Be grateful for the tiny details of your life and make room for unexpected and beautiful blessings.

Half of the secular unrest and dismal, profane sadness of modern society comes from the vain ideas that every man is bound to be a critic for life.

All Thy works with joy surround Thee, God of glory, Lord of Love; Stars and angels sing around Thee, Center of unbroken praise. Field and forest, vale and mountain, Flowery meadow, flashing sea, Chanting bird and flowing fountain, Call us to rejoice in Thee.

Be glad of life because it gives you the chance to love, to work, to play, and to look up at the stars.
