The world of dew
is the world of dew,
And yet, and yet...

Courage is not the towering oak
that sees storms come and go;
it is the fragile blossom that
opens in the snow.

-Alice Mackenzie Swaim

Forgiveness means giving up all hope of a better past.

-Landrum Bolling

Carrying a poppy
he passes through
the quarrel.

There is some truth in everything.
Views and opinions are different aspects.
 Do not quarrel with others.

Man needs now no more degrees, but character,
No more study, but wisdom.

There are victories of the soul and spirt. 
Sometimes, even if you lose,  you win.

People usually consider walking on water or in thin air a miracle.  But I think the real miracle is not  to walk either on water or in thin air, but to walk on earth.  Every day we are engaged  in a miracle which we don't even recognize: a blue sky, white clouds, green leaves, the black, curious eyes of a child - our own two eyes.  All is a miracle.

When you have only two pennies left in the world, buy a loaf of bread with one, and a lily with the other.

"I have found that if you love life,
life will love you back"
