The Universe is one great kindergarten for man. Everything that exists has brought with it its own peculiar lesson. The mountain teaches stability and grandeur; the ocean immensity and change. Forests, lakes, and rivers, clouds and winds, stars and flowers, stupendous glaciers and crystal snowflakes, - every form of animate or inanimate existence, leaves its impress upon the soul of man. Even the bee and ant have brought their little lessons of industry and economy.

There is no medicine like hope, no incentive so great, and no tonic so powerful as expectation of something tomorrow.

We win half the battle when we make up our minds to take the world as we find it including the thorns.

We can give our smiles, our encouragement, our sympathy to someone who needs them every day of the year.

A good system shortens the road to the goal.

The lack of opportunity is ever the excuse of the weak.

No one has a corner on success. It is his who pays the price.
