Oh, God, if I were sure I were to die tonight I would repent at once. It is the commonest prayer in all languages.

There are many different kinds of bravery. There's the bravery of thinking of others before one's self. Now, your father has never brandished a sword nor fired a pistol, thank heavens. But he has made many sacrifices for his family, and put away many dreams... He put them in a drawer. And sometimes, late at night, we take them out and admire them. But it gets harder and harder to close the drawer... He does. And that is why he is brave.

I think it's perfectly lovely the way you talk about girls.

Love, it is said, is blind, but love is not blind. It is an extra eye, which shows us what is most worthy of regard. To see the best is to see most clearly, and it is the lover's privilege.

Nothing is really work unless you would rather be doing something else.

Just always be waiting for me.

Courage: The lovely virtue-the rib of Himself that God sent down to His children.
