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 am determined to live without illusions. I want to look at reality straight. Without hiding.

The Senior Tour is a good concept, although frankly I'm not astounded at its continued success. It gives a lot of guys an opportunity to extend their careers.

You see, the contemporary writer must write through his intimations of unease, while trying to elucidate them.

He that is thy friend indeed, he will help you in your need.
