Remember that nothing is small in the eyes of God. Do all that you do with love.

The value of life does not depend upon the place we occupy. It depends upon the way we occupy that place.

Miss no single opportunity of making some small sacrifice, here by a smiling look, there by a kindly word; always doing the smallest right and doing it all for love.

Perfect love means putting up with other peoples shortcomings, feeling no surprise at their weaknesses, finding encouragement even in the slightest evidence of good qualities in them.

I feel it gone, yet know not when it left.
