We sleep, but the loom of life never stops, and the pattern... - 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."

"It is not the going out of port, but the coming in, that determines the success of a voyage."

"Where is human nature so weak as in the bookstore?"

"We should not judge people by their peak of excellence; but by the distance they have traveled from the point where they started."
