The men who learn endurance, are they who call the whole world, brother.
From Charles Dickens
Renunciation remains sorrow, though a sorrow borne willingly.
In the little world in which children have their existence, whosoever brings them up, there is nothing so finely perceived and so finely felt, as injustice.
'Tis love that makes the world go round, my baby.
This is a world of action, and not for moping and droning in.
Oh the nerves, the nerves; the mysteries of this machine called man! Oh the little that unhinges it, poor creatures that we are!
It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shade.
There are dark shadows on the earth, but its lights are stronger in the contrast.
Regrets are the natural property of grey hairs.
Nature gives to every time and season some beauties of its own; and from morning to night, as from the cradle to the grave, it is but a succession of changes so gentle and easy that we can scarcely mark their progress.
