Our Friends Interpret The World

A Friendship Formed In Childhood, In Youth,--by Happy Accident At Any Stage Of Rising Manhood,--becomes The Genius That Rules The Rest Of Life.

There Is Virtue In Country Houses, In Gardens And Orchards, In Fields, Streams And Groves, In Rustic Recreations And Plain Manners, That Neither Cities Nor Universities Enjoy.

Success Is Sweet And Sweeter If Long Delayed And Gotten Through Many Struggles And Defeats.

Pity The Mother Who Assumes The Name Without Being All This Implies!

Health, Longevity, Beauty, Are Other Names For Personal Purity; And Temperance Is The Regimen For All.
