Sad will be the day for every man when he becomes absolutely contented with the life that he is living, with the thoughts that he is thinking, with the deeds that he is doing, when there is not forever beating at the doors of his soul some great desire to do something larger which he knows that he was meant and made to do because he is a child of God  (When Quotes) When the body is assailed by the strong force of time and the limbs weaken from exhausted force, genius breaks down, and mind and speech fail  (When Quotes) Hope is our life when first our life grows clear, hope and delight, scarce crossed by lines of fear: yet the day comes when fain we would not hope - but for as much as we with life must cope, struggling with this and that - and who knows why? Hope will not give us up to certainty, but still must bide with us  (When Quotes) Virtue is a beautiful thing in woman when they don't go about with it like a child with a drum making all sorts of noise with it  (When Quotes) Truth!

When I got my life on purpose and focused on giving of myself and everything that arrived into my life, then I was prosperous  (When Quotes) When you dance, your purpose is not to get to a certain place on the floor.

Does this sound like a record of genocide?  (When Quotes) There are more acres of forest land in America today than when Columbus discovered the continent in 1492  (When Quotes) A good head and good heart are always a formidable combination. But when you add to that a literate tongue or pen, then you have something very special  (When Quotes) The ideal life is in our blood and never will be still.
