But this is not true. You are sure to be happy again. Knowing this, truly believing it will make you less miserable now. I have had enough experience to make this statement."
"I remember my mother's prayers and they have always followed me. They have clung to me all my life."
"in times like the present, men should utter nothing for which they would not willingly be responsible through time and eternity."
