For a gallant spirit there can never be defeat.

And now, this is the sweetest and most glorious day that ever my eyes did see.

The truth is on the march and nothing will stop it.

Tears of joy are like the summer rain drops pierced by sunbeams.

Every charitable act is a stepping stone toward heaven.

I am prepared for the worst, but hope for the best.

Yesterday we obeyed kings and bent our necks before emperors. But today we kneel only to truth, follow only beauty, and obey only love.

Health is the greatest possession. Contentment is the greatest treasure. Confidence is the greatest friend. Non-being is the greatest joy.

Tears are often the telescope by which men see far into heaven.

Plant thy foot firmly in the prints which His foot has made before thee.
