It is only in sorrow bad weather masters us in joy we face the storm and defy it.

We can change our lives. We can do, have, and be exactly what we wish.

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

Everyone here has the sense that right now is one of those moments when we are influencing the future.

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

It is not ignorance but knowledge which is the mother of wonder.

Every charitable act is a stepping stone toward heaven.

The glow of one warm thought is to me worth more than money.

The glow of one warm thought is to me worth more than money.

How glorious a greeting the sun gives the mountains!
