FRANKLIN DAVID CROCKETT Education is the chief defense of nations. - GARFIELD Keep company with the good and you will be one of them. From the lowest depths there is a path to the loftiest heights. CARLYLE Good luck will help a man over the ditch, if he jumps hard. SPURGEON I would rather be right than be president of the United States. - HENRY CLAY It is well to think well; it is divine to act well. HORACE MANN One cannot always be a hero, but one can always be a man. GOETHE Self-conquest is the greatest of victories. - PLATO Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. Prosperity makes friends; adversity tries them. BURKE BIBLE PACUVIUS The man without a purpose is like a ship without a rudder. CARLYLE Do the duty that lies nearest thee which thou knowest to be a duty. Thy second duty will already have become clearer. CARLYLE A grateful mind is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all other virtues. CICERO God has two dwellings: one in heaven and the other in a meek and thankful heart. IZAAK WALTON The chains of habit are generally too small to be felt till they are too strong to be broken. SAMUEL JOHNSON I have learned to seek my happiness by limiting my desires rather than in attempting to satisfy them. JOHN STUART MILL He lives long who lives well; time misspent is not lived but lost. - FULLER To look up and not down, to look forward and not back, to look out and not in, and to lend a hand. E. E. HALE Habit is a cable; we weave a thread of it each day, and it becomes so strong we cannot break it. — HORACE MANN We grow like what we think of; so let us think of the good, the true, and the beautiful. PHILLIPS BROOKS If you wish your neighbors to see what God is like, you must let them see what He can make you like. CHARLES KINGSLEY He who is false to present duty breaks a thread in the loom, and he will find the flaw when he may have forgotten its cause. BEECHER There are no fragments so precious as those of time, and none so heedlessly lost by people who cannot make a moment, and yet can waste years. - JAMES MONTGOMERY I shall pass this way but once. Any good thing therefore that I can do or any kindness that I can show to any human being, let me do it now. GILPIN A good character is the finest essential in a man. It is, therefore, highly important to endeavor not only to be learned, but virtuous. - GEORGE WASHINGTON Pride slays thanksgiving, but an humble mind is the soil out of which thanks naturally grow. A proud man is seldom a grateful man, for he never thinks he gets as much as he deserves. BEECHER There is no duty the fulfillment of which will not make you happier, nor any temptation for which there is no remedy. SENECA The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament showeth his handiwork. - BIBLE Honesty is the best policy; but he who acts on that principle is not an honest man. - ARCHBISHOP WHATELY Experience shows that success is due less to ability than to zeal. The winner is he who gives himself to his work, body and soul. - BUXTON The great secret of success in life is for a man to be ready when his opportunity comes. - DISRAELI The lives of men who have been always growing are strewed along their whole course with the things they have learned to do without. PHILLIPS BROOKS Perseverance is a great element of success. If you only knock long enough and loud enough at the gate, you are sure to wake up somebody. LONGFELLOW We ought to hear at least one little song every day, read a good poem, see a first-rate painting, and, if possible, speak a few sensible words.. - GOETHE All true work is sacred; for in all true work, were it but true hand-labor, there is something of divineness. Labor, wide as the earth, has its summit in heaven. CARLYLE Be such a life, live such a life, that if every man were such as you, and every life a life like yours, this earth would be a paradise. PHILLIPS BROOKS Oh, what a tangled web we weave, SCOTT SHAKESPEARE LONGFELLOW Act, act in the living Present, Dare to be true: nothing can need a lie; A fault which needs it most grows two thereby.— HERBERT All seems infected that th' infected spy, As all looks yellow to the jaundiced eye. - POPE Count that day lost whose low descending sun Views from thy hand no worthy action done. — ANONYMOUS Howe'er it be, it seems to me, 'Tis only noble to be good; Kind hearts are more than coronets, And simple faith than Norman blood. True dignity abides in him alone, Who, in the patient hour of silent thought, So nigh is grandeur to our dust, So near is God to man, When Duty whispers low, "Thou must," The youth replies, "I can!"-EMERSON TENNYSON WORDSWORTH |
