A friend is a present you give yourself.
Dreams
An aspiration is a joy forever, a possession as solid as a landed estate.
Courage
Keep your fears to yourself, but share your courage with others.
Calmness
Quiet minds cannot be perplexed or frightened, but go on in fortune or misfortune at their own private pace, like a clock during a thunderstorm.
Friendship
So long as we love we serve;/ So long as we are loved by others,/ I would almost say that we are indispensable;/ And no one is useless while they have a friend.
Reflection
The mark of a good action is that it appears inevitable in retrospect.
Perseverance, Persistence
The saints are the sinners who keep going.
