Forget the past and live in the present hour. Now is the time to work, the time to fill The soul with noblest thoughts, the time to will.

Forget the past and live the present hour.

The perfume of natures does not usually come forth without bruising.

I like the man, who faces what he must, with steps triumphant and a heart of cheer; who fights the daily battle without fear.

Heroic deeds, to use whatever dower Heaven has bestowed, to test our utmost power.

Be glad today. Tomorrow may bring tears. Be brave today. The darkest night will pass.

Forget the past and live in the present hour. Now is the time to work, the time to fill The soul with noblest thoughts, the time to will.
