A Mother Is The Best Friend God

Within The Sacred Walls Of Libraries We Find The Best Thoughts, The Purest Feelings, And The Most Exalted Imaginings Of Our Race.

It Is Difficult To Say Which Is The Greatest Evil--to Have Too Violent Passions, Or To Be Wholly Devoid Of Them. Controlled With Firmness, Guided By Discretion, And Hallowed By The Imagination, The Passions Are The Vivifiers And Quickeners Of Our Being. Without Passion There Can Be No Energy Of Character. Indeed, The Passions Are Like Fire, Useful In A Thousand Ways, And Dangerous Only In One--through Their Excess.

To Be Without Sympathy Is To Be Alone In The World--without Friends Or Country, Home Or Kindred.

The Beauty Seen Is Partly In Him Who Sees It.

It Is Of Very Little Use In Trying To Be Dignified, If Dignity Is No Part Of Your Character.
