Henri Frederic Amiel

Thankfulness is the beginning of gratitude. Gratitude is the completion of thankfulness. Thankfulness may consist merely of words. Gratitude is shown in acts.

There is no respect for others without humility in one's self.

True humility is contentment.

Life is short and we have never too much time for gladdening the hearts of those who are travelling the dark journey with us. Oh be swift to love, make haste to be kind.

Uncertainty is the refuge of hope.

Learn to... be what you are, and learn to resign with a good grace all that you are not.
