Collected by Croft Pentz
Since life is short, we ought to make the experience as varied and broad as we possibly can.
Life is filled with shadows, but it is sunshine that makes them all.
Life is like a bank—you get out what you put into it with interest.
Don’t worry what you could do if you lived your life over; get busy with what’s left.
Our lives are never more secure than when they are abandoned to God.
