Page 144 - They stand written in our Works of Science, say you; in the accumulated records of man's Experience? - Was man with his Experience present at the Creation, then, to see how it all went on?

Page 151 - If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you. This is the principal difference between a dog and a man.
Page 203 - Might of the roaring boiler, Force of the engine's thrust, Strength of the sweating toiler, Greatly in these we trust. But back of them stands the schemer, The thinker who drives things through; Back of the job — the dreamer, Who's making the dream come true!
Page 1 - Talk happiness. The world is sad enough Without your woes. No path is wholly rough; Look for the places that are smooth and clear, And speak of those who rest the weary ear Of earth, so hurt by one continuous strain Of human discontent and grief and pain.
Page 71 - IT isn't the thing you do, dear; It's the thing you leave undone, Which gives you a bit of heartache At the setting of the sun.
