A little more patience, a little more charity for all, a little more devotion, a little more love with less bowing down to the past, and a silent ignoring of pretended authority brave looking forward to the future with more faith in our fellows, and the race will be ripe for a great burst of light and life.

Good health! Whenever you go out of doors, draw the chin in, carry the crown of your head high, and fill the lungs to the utmost drink in sunshine greet your friends with a smile, and put soul into every handclasp. Do not fear being misunderstood and never waste a minute thinking about your enemies.
