Birds sing after a storm why shouldn't people feel as free to delight in whatever remains to them?

Make sure you never, never argue at night. You just lose a good night's sleep, and you can't settle anything until morning anyway.

It's our money, and we're free to spend it any way we please.

I've had an exciting time I married for love and got a little money along with it.

Life isn't a matter of milestones, but of moments.

Neither comprehension nor learning can take place in an atmosphere of anxiety.

What greater aspiration and challenge are there for a mother than the hope of raising a great son or daughter?

More business is lost every year through neglect than through any other cause.

I looked on child rearing not only as a work of love and duty but as a profession that was fully as interesting and challenging as any honorable profession in the world and one that demanded the best that I could bring to it.

I tell myself that God gave my children many gifts - spirit, beauty, intelligence, the capacity to make friends and to inspire respect. There was only one gift he held back - length of life.
