The perfume of natures does not usually come forth without bruising..
Be glad today. Tomorrow may bring tears. Be brave today. The darkest night will pass..
Forget the past and live the present hour..
Heroic deeds, to use whatever dower Heaven has bestowed, to test our utmost power..
I like the man, who faces what he must, with steps triumphant and a heart of cheer; who fights the daily battle without fear..
Forget the past and live in the present hour. Now is the time to work, the time to fill The soul with noblest thoughts, the time to will..
He alone is great Who by a life heroic conquers fate..
