Someone has to do everything that is done.

One of the greatest accomplishments in this world would be that of lifting human hearts. Blessed are they who are kind and considerate of the feelings of other people.

Go ahead with your life, your plans.... Don't waste time by stopping before the interruptions have started.

What is it that makes us suppose that we can more easily do twice tomorrow what we didn't do once today!

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."

Keep courage. Whatever you do, do not feel sorry for yourself. You will win in a great age of opportunity.

Children will not remember you for the material things you provided but for the feeling that you cherished them.
