What we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.

We can decide to let our trials crush us, or we can convert them to new forces of good

Love is like a beautiful flower which I may not touch, but whose fragrance makes the garden a place of delight just the same

The million little things that drop into your hands, The small opportunities each day brings, He leaves us free to use or abuse, And goes unchanging along His silent way

One can never consent to creep when one feels an impulse to soar.

Relationships are like Rome -- difficult to start out, incredible during the prosperity of the 'golden age', and unbearable during the fall. Then, a new kingdom will come along and the whole process will repeat itself until you come across a kingdom like Egypt... that thrives, and continues to flourish. This kingdom will become your best friend, your soul mate, and your love.
