Do Not Wish To Be Anything But What You Are, And Try To Be That Perfectly.

Though Perseverance Does Not Come From Our Power, Yet It Comes Within Our Power.

The Elephant, Not Only The Largest But The Most Intelligent Of Animals, Provides Us With An Excellent Example. It Is Faithful And Tenderly Loving To The Female Of Its Choice, Mating Only Every Third Year And Then For No More Than Five Days, And So Secretly As Never To Be Seen, Until, On The Sixth Day, It Appears And Goes At Once To Wash Its Whole Body In The River, Unwilling To Return To The Herd Until Thus Purified. Such Good And Modest Habits Are An Example To Husband And Wife.

Be Who You Are And Do That Well.

If You Would Fall Into Any Extreme, Let It Be On The Side Of Gentleness. The Human Mind Is So Constructed That It Resists Rigor, And Yields To Softness.
