Grace is the beauty of form under the influence of freedom.

Every heart that has beat strongly and cheerfully has left a hopeful impulse behind it in the world, and bettered the tradition of mankind.

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

Gratitude is the fairest blossom which springs from the soul.

Hope is some extraordinary spiritual grace that God gives us to control our fears, not to oust them.

We can't help everyone, but everyone can help someone.

Joy descends gently upon us like the evening dew, and does not patter down like a hailstorm.

It's inspirational to see someone who is dying smile.

It is always the simple that produces the marvelous.
