“Do not be too sure, young fellows,That you are better than your ancestors.”

“Kindness is goodness hidden in the heartMore often than declared in speech.- Kindness”

“Kindness is in a prison till it findsRelease in words or deeds.- Kindness”

“This I have known, and these have come againWith echoing happiness in heart and brain;Time standing still, surrendering to meBeauty that otherwise would cease to be.- Time Stands”

“I eat you, life; you make me living eat.- The Word”

“In a cool solitude of treesWhere leaves and birds a music spin,Mind that was weary is at ease,New rhythms in the soul begin.- In a Cool Solitude of Trees”
