Success is full of promise till one gets it, and then it see... - Henry Ward Beecher

"A person without a sense of humor is like a wagon without springs. It's jolted by every pebble on the road."

"Love cannot endure indifference. It needs to be wanted. Like a lamp, it needs to be fed out of the oil of another's heart, or its flame burns low."

"The art of being happy lies in the power of extracting happiness from common things."

"Tears are often the telescope by which men see far into heaven."

"Adversity, if for no other reason, is of benefit, since it is sure to bring a season of sober reflection. People see clearer at such times. Storms purify the atmosphere."
