"It's the beauty within us that makes it possible for us to recognize the beauty around us. The question is not what you look at but what you see."
"Do not despair of life. You have no doubt force enough to overcome your obstacles. Think of the fox prowling through wood and field in a winter night for something to satisfy his hunger. Notwithstanding cold and the hounds and traps, his race survives. I do not believe any of them ever committed suicide."
