Many a man's reputation would not know his character if they met on the street.
Elbert Hubbard
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.
Elbert Hubbard
