Happiness mainly depends on man's ability to work and the way in which he does it.

If you don't want temptation to follow you, don't act as if you are interested.

Shouldn't the commandments be re-written? No, they should be re-read!

Whatever you do, do not feel sorry for yourself - things could always be worse and they are for someone else!

Things I don't understand don't destroy my faith in the things I do understand.

Don't let life discourage you; everyone who got where he is had to begin where he was.

May I make two citations from the words of a discerning editorial writer, not one of my faith, but one of much faith: "If we neglect the divine . . . and give ourselves over wholly to the human," he said, "we may certainly count upon nothing but the triumph of pessimism. . . . True optimism must rest upon a calm, unshakable faith in eternal life and in the unlimited goodness of him who gives it."
