“All things are ready, if our mind be so.”

I do desire we may be better strangers.

Have more than you show, Speak less than you know.

I do desire we may be better strangers.

Instead of weeping when a tragedy occurs in a songbird’s life, it sings away its grief. I believe we could well follow the pattern of our feathered friends.

Love is heavy and light, bright and dark, hot and cold, sick and healthy, asleep and awake- its everything except what it is!

Strong reasons make strong actions.

Nothing comes from doing nothing.

Of all the flowers, me thinks a rose is best.

Lord, what fools these mortals be!

There is nothing in the world so much like prayer as music is.

Cowards die many times before their deaths; The valiant never taste of death but once.

Nature teaches beasts to know their friends.

The man that hath no music in himself, Nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds, is fit for treasons, stratagems and spoils.

The empty vessel makes the loudest sound.

Ignorance is the curse of God; knowledge is the wing wherewith we fly to heaven.

Grief makes one hour ten.

All I really know is the extent of my own ignorance.

I’m normal, well, semi-normal.

I will go down with my colours flying.

I’m just myself. That’s the best way to put it.

If you live each day as it was your last, someday you’ll most certainly be right

A positive attitude and a sense of humor go together like biscuits and gravy.

I have heard there are troubles of more than one kind. Some come from ahead and some come from behind. But I’ve bought a big bat. I’m all ready you see. Now my troubles are going to have troubles with me!

I’m not going to limit myself just because people won’t accept the fact that I can do something else.
