Wealth and want equally harden the human heart.

Great joy, especially after a sudden change of circumstances,

is apt to be silent, and dwells rather in the heart than on the tongue.

When the future hinges

“When the future hinges
on the next words that are said,

To live and let live

Everyone has been made

Know in your heart

are your word, a smile, and a grateful heart.”

They must be felt with the heart.”
