“But I believe we all have an inner goodness; a little flame that stays alight through the worst of trials.”

“All I have learned through trial and error is to stay alert and aware, especially God smiling @ our silliness. ”

“Never believe for a second that your weak, within all of us we have a reserve of inner hidden strength,”

“This is one reason people need to believe in God—because we want someone to know us, truly, all the way through, even the worst of us.”

“In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.”

“Perhaps I have not really a good temper at all, but if you have everything you want and everyone is kind to you, how can you help but be good-tempered? Perhaps I'm a HIDEOUS child, and no one will ever know, just beecause I never have any trials. (Sara Crewe, A Little Princess)”
