Good taste is the modesty of the mind; that is why it cannot be either imitated or acquired.

The care of a wise and good man for his only son is inferior to the regard of the great Parent of the universe for his creatures.

Holiness never goes out of fashion.

I just wish that God or my parents or Sam or my sister or someone would just tell me what's wrong with me. Just tell me how to be different in a way that makes sense. To make this all go away.
