“In narrow and gloomy streets, keep your spirit high!”
“If a street has a spirit, no matter how narrow it is, we can breathe comfortably over there.”
“Keep your body grounded on earth, but keep your consciousness high above the clouds”
“Being cheerful keeps you healthy. It is slow death to be gloomy all the time.”
“I feel exquisite pleasure in dwelling on the recollections of childhood, before misfortune had tainted my mind, and changed its bright visions of extensive usefulness into gloomy and narrow reflections upon self.”
“Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.”
