Success is full of promise till one gets it, and then it seems like a nest from which the bird has flown.
Henry Ward BeecherWhoever makes home seem to the young dearer and more happy, is a public benefactor.
Henry Ward BeecherWe never know how much one loves till we know how much he is willing to endure and suffer for us; and it is the suffering element that measures love. The characters that are great must, of necessity, be characters that shall be willing, patient and strong to endure for others. To hold our nature in the willing service of another is the divine idea of manhood, of the human character.
Henry Ward Beecher
