Nothing is easy to the unwilling. -Thomas Fuller.
He that will not apply new remedies must expect new evils.
Few will have the greatness to bend history itself; but each of us can work to change a small portion of events, and in the total ;of all those acts will be written the history of this generation.
Become a student of change. It is the only thing that will remain constant. -Anthony J. D'Angelo.
The future is not a result of choices among alternative paths offered by the present, but a place that is created--created first in the mind and will, created next in activity. The future is not some place we are going to, but one we are creating. The paths are not to be found, but made, and the activity of making them, changes both the maker and the destination. -John Schaar.
If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything.
In charity to all mankind, bearing no malice or ill-will to any human being, and even compassionating those who hold in bondage their fellow-men, not knowing what they do.
In Faith and Hope the world will disagree, But all mankind's concern is charity.
He who waits to do a great deal of good at once, will never do anything.
'Tis chastity, my brother, chastity; She that has that is clad in complete steel, And, like a quiver'd nymph with arrows keen, May trace huge forests, and unharbour'd heaths, Infamous hills, and sandy perilous wilds; Where, through the sacred rays of chastity, No savage fierce, bandite, or mountaineer, Will dare to soil her virgin purity.
When a woman has lost her chastity, she will shrink from no crime. [Lat., Neque femina amissa pudicitia alia abneurit.]
Integrity is not a conditional word. It doesn't blow in the wind or change with the weather. It is your inner image of yourself, and if you look in there and see a man who won't cheat, then you know he never will.
A cheerful temper joined with innocence will make beauty attractive, knowledge delightful and wit good-natured.
As long as there is a chance of the world getting through its troubles, I hold that a reasonable man must behave as though he were sure of it. If at the end your cheerfulness was not justified, at any rate you will have been cheerful.
Wondrous is the strength of cheerfulness, and its power of endurance--the cheerful man will do more in the same time, will do it ;better, will preserve it longer, than the sad or sullen.
Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

There are only two things a child will share willingly: communicable diseases and his mother's age.
What America needs is more young people who will carry to their jobs the same enthusiasm for getting ahead that they display in traffic. -M.A. Kelly.
Boys will be boys. And even that wouldn't matter if only we could prevent girls from being girls.
Let a man turn to his own childhoodâno furtherâif he will renew his sense of remoteness, and of the mystery of change.
Our children's children will hear a good story.
All lovely things will have an ending, All lovely things will fade and die; And youth, that's now so bravely spending, Will beg a penny by and by.
Let the child's first lesson be obedience, and the second will be what thou wilt.
He that will not when he may, When he will he shall have nay.
