I have looked into your eyes with my eyes. I have put my heart near your heart.

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

Gratitude is the fairest blossom which springs from the soul.

I pray God may preserve your health and life many years.

Nurture your minds with great thoughts. To believe in the heroic makes heroes.

It is always the simple that produces the marvelous.

Great hopes make great men.

It is in your moments of decision that your destiny is shaped.

Someone's sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.

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