A babe in the house is a well-spring of pleasure, a messenger of peace and love, a resting place for innocence on earth, a link between angels and men.
From Martin Farquhar Tupper
Ridicule is a weak weapon when pointed at a strong mind; but common people are cowards and dread an empty laugh.
Well-timed silence hath more eloquence than speech.
Prayer is the slender nerve that moves the muscle of omnipotence.
God, from a beautiful necessity, is Love.
Memory is not wisdom; idiots can by rote repeat volumes. Yet what is wisdom without memory?
He who does not tire, tires adversity.
A good book is the best of friends, the same today and forever.
If thou art master to thyself, circumstances shall harm thee little.
Pain adds rest unto pleasure, and teaches the luxury of health.
