Ann Landers
In the end, it's not what you do for your children but what you've taught them to do for themselves.
Ann Landers
Life is rough for everyone....Life isn't always fair. Whatever it is that hits the fan, its never evenly distributed - some always tend to get more of it than others.
Ann Landers
Maturity is the art of living in peace with that which cannot be changed, the courage to change that which should be changed, no matter what it takes, and the wisdom to know the difference.
Ann Landers
Love is content with the present, it hopes for the future and it doesn't brood over the past.
Ann Landers
There could be no honor in a sure success, but much might be wrested from a sure defeat.
