Pictures made in childhood are painted in bright hues.

Every child born into the world is a new thought of God, an ever-fresh and radiant possibility.

If you make children happy now, you will make them happy twenty years hence by the memory of it.

You may have noted the fact that it is a person's virtues as often as his vices that make him difficult to live with.

One cannot see callers, answer the telephone, go to luncheons or dinners, visit the dentist or shoemaker, address charitable organizations in or from a bed; therefore a bed, in my experience, is simply bristling with ideas.

Some folks mistakes all they see for all there is.

Most of all the other beautiful things in life come by twos and threes, by dozens and hundreds. Plenty of roses, stars, sunsets, rainbows, brothers, and sisters, aunts and cousins, but only one mother in the whole world.
