It Would Be A Great Thing If

Those Who Have Not Distinguished Themselves At School Need Not On That Account Be Discouraged. The Greatest Minds Do Not Necessarily Ripen The Quickest.

Earth And Sky, Woods And Fields, Lakes And Rivers, The Mountain And The Sea, Are Excellent Schoolmasters, And Teach Some Of Us More Than We Can Ever Learn From Books.

Many A Blessing Has Been Recognized Too Late.

Rest Is Not Idleness, And To Lie Sometimes On The Grass Under Trees On A Summer's Day, Listening To The Murmur Of The Water, Or Watching The Clouds Float Across The Sky, Is By No Means A Waste Of Time.
