It is never too late to be what you might have been.
From George Eliot
There is no despair so absolute as that which comes with the first moments of our first great sorrow, when we have not yet known what it is to have suffered and be healed, to have despaired and have recovered hope.
Wear a smile and have friends; wear a scowl and have wrinkles.
Life began with waking up and loving my mother's face.
Animals are such agreeable friends - they ask no questions; they pass no criticisms.
All meanings, we know, depend on the key of interpretation.
You should read history and look at ostracism, persecution, martyrdom, and that kind of thing. They always happen to the best men, you know.
Hobbies are apt to run away with us, you know; it doesn't do to be run away with. We must keep the reins.
It seems to me we can never give up longing and wishing while we are thoroughly alive. There are certain things we feel to be beautiful and good, and we must hunger after them.
Great things are not done by impulse, but by a series of small things brought together.
