Remember what peace there may be in silence.

Be cheerful . Strive to be happy.

I should like, if I could, to leave a humble gift -- a bit of chaste prose that had caught up some noble moods.

Speak your truth quietly & clearly; and listen to others, even the dull & ignorant; they too have their story.

Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity & disenchantment it is perennial as the grass.

Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
