Lewis B. SmedesBe ever gentle with the children God has given you; watch over them constantly; reprove them earnestly, but not in anger.

And at the top, it never seems to have been as difficult a feat to climb there as you first made it out to be. Most of all, youโll know that you beat that mountain, and that you rule it. It does not rule you.

Elizabeth Scottif there is one place in the United States where private styles make up for public images, it is San Francisco, where all lapsed lovers of America, even loyalists like me experiencing spasms of disillusionment, should be taken for refresher courses.
