As Regards Parents, I Should Like To

While We Ponder When To Begin, It Becomes Too Late To Do.

Give Me The Boy Who Rouses When He Is Praised, Who Profits When He Is Encouraged And Who Cries When He Is Defeated. Such A Boy Will Be Fired By Ambition; He Will Be Stung By Reproach, And Animated By Preference; Never Shall I Apprehend Any Bad Consequences From Idleness In Such A Boy.

To Swear, Except When Necessary, Is Becoming To An Honorable Man. [lat., In Totum Jurare, Nisi Ubi Necesse Est, Gravi Viro Parum Convenit.]

Lately We Have Had Many Losses.

It Is The Heart Which Inspires Eloquence.
