“ Good, better, best. Never let it rest. 'Til your good is better and your better is best. ”
Being over seventy is like being engaged in a war. All our friends are going or gone and we survive amongst the dead and the dying as on a battlefield.
~ St. Jerome
Love is not to be purchased, and affection has no price.
Marriage is good for those who are afraid to sleep alone at night.
I am like the sick sheep that strays from the rest of the flock. Unless the Good Shepherd takes me on His shoulders and carries me back to His fold, my steps will falter, and in the very effort of rising, my feet will give way.
