There are no short cuts to Heaven, only the ordinary way of ordinary things.

Sometimes it is a great joy just to listen to someone we love talking.

Beauty is the radiance of truth, and the frangrance of goodness.

What great delight it is to see the ones we love and then to have speech with them.

Buy boots you can walk in. Walk in them. Even if you lessen the income of the General Omnibus Company, or your family doctor you will discover the human foot. On discovering it, your joy will be as great as if you had invented it. But this joy is the greatest, because no human invention even of Mr. Ford or Mr. Marconi is within a mile of a foot.

Hope is some extraordinary spiritual grace that God gives us to control our fears, not to oust them.
