THOUGHTS

 

---You should not try to be the driver if you don't know where the road you have taken leads.

 

---Always weigh your words for fear of vexing, leading astray, or shocking, especially if dealing with weak minds.

 

---It's futile to think you will be welcome if you speak only the truth.

 

---Don't get angry at yourself, it's as bad as getting angry at your neighbor, for your closest neighbor is yourself.

 

---Always be pleasant to strangers. But try to learn their ways before telling them of yours.

 

---If you aren't able to keep your secret yourself, don't think you will find someone else to keep it.

 

---Don't ever turn up your nose at food, think of the effort it cost the worker, think of the great number who are dying of hunger in the World.

 

---The better I know people the more I love my dog!

 

---The poorer the soil that nourishes a tree, the deeper its roots go in... The same thing appears to be true of people.

 

---And if there were no cuckoo? Would Springtime ever come? ---Open the door you say? For people to go out? Or for the dogs to come in?

 

---A new neighbor! A world to discover?

 

---When there is a servant in your house you see only his faults. Once gone, you speak only of his good qualities.
