The good and wise lead quite lives

One loyal friend is worth ten thousand relatives.

Friends show their love in times of trouble, not in happiness.

Talk sense to a fool and he calls you foolish.

Do not plan for ventures before finishing what's at hand.

Better a serpent than a stepmother!

Love is all we have, the only way that each can help the other.

Short is the joy that guilty pleasure brings.

Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday. Tragedy isn't getting something or failure to get it; it's losing something you already have. Waste not fresh tears over old griefs.

Real friendship is shown in times of trouble; prosperity is full of friends.

Silence and chaste reserve is woman's genuine praise, and to remain quiet within the house.

...the standard for moral behaviour must be part of God's nature. He did not create morality, he is morality.

You get bummed out, and then you go, "Oh! Now I get to go buy a present for myself." That kind of helps.

We pick up the pieces, Donna. Some of them are broken.

I want to help with bullying because there are girls who can't just up and homeschool and focus on their career.

I was born with success. Lucky for me I am able to handle it. Also, I damn well deserve it!

Today, our air, food, water-all are polluted. If we do not stop exploiting nature for our temporary selfish gains, we will destroy the world.

Those people who think only of themselves, are hopelessly uneducated. They are not educated, no matter how instructed they may be.

A month's salary, deep regret, the telephone number of some foul rehab clinic and my lance was free.

That is God's call to us - simply to be people who are content to live close to him and to renew the kind of life in which the closeness is felt and experienced.

How delightful is the company of generous people, who overlook trifles and keep their minds instinctively fixed on whatever is good and positive in the world around them.
