“No kind action ever stops with itself. One kind action leads to another.”

Courage is the price that life exacts for granting peace.

To worry is to add another hazard.

Women, like men, should try to do the impossible. And when they fail, their failure should be a challenge to others.

The greatest work that kindness does to others is that it makes them kind themselves.

You haven’t seen a tree until you’ve seen its shadow from the sky.

Please know that I am aware of the hazards. I want to do it because I want to do it. Women must try to do things as men have tried. When they fail, their failure must be a challenge to others.
