There is nothing in the world so irresistibly contagious as laughter and good humor.
No one is useless in this world who lightens the burden of it to anyone else.
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.
Have a heart that never hardens, and a temper that never tires, and a touch that never hurts.
And O there are days in this life, worth life and worth death.
Never close your lips to those whom you have already opened your heart.
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair.
A day wasted on others is not wasted on one's self.
We forge the chains we wear in life.
Vices are sometimes only virtues carried to excess!
