"You say you have thousands of my days; but I have thousands of moments, in which I can be merry and happy " — Hans Christian Andersen

Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work

If there is something to pardon in everything, there is also something to condemn.

In fair weather prepare for foul

If there were no schools to take the children away from home part of the time, the insane asylums would be filled with mothers

Youth would be an ideal state if it came a little later in life

Much may be done in those little shreds and patches of time which every day produces, and which most men throw away
