Quote

A birthday: and now a day that rose with much of hope, with meaning rife. A thoughtful day from dawn to close: the middle day of human life

The human heart has hidden treasures, in secret kept, in silence sealed; the thoughts, the hopes, the dreams, the pleasures, whose charms were broken if revealed

We must accept finite disappointment, but we must never lose infinite hope

Only one thing is necessary in your anguish: bear everything with resignation to the Divine Will; for this will help you to attain your eternal salvation. Hope with a lively faith and you will receive everything from Almighty God.

None who have always been free can understand the terrible fascinating power of the hope of freedom to those who are not free

If you wish to succeed in life, make perseverance your bosom friend, experience your wise counselor, caution your elder brother, and hope your guardian genius
