When we do the best we can, we never know what miracle is wrought in our life, or in the life of another.
- -- Helen Keller

Some day, in years to come, you will be wrestling with the great temptation, or trembling under the great sorrow of your life. But the real struggle is here, now, in these quiet weeks. Now it is being decided whether, in the day of your supreme sorrow or temptation, you shall miserably fail or gloriously conquer. Character cannot be made except by a steady, long continued process.
- -- Phillips Brooks



If I had my life to live over again, I would have made a rule to read some poetry and listen to some music at least once a week.
- -- Charles Darwin
