“Wealth is a means to an end, not the end itself. As a synonym for health and happiness, it has had a fair trial and failed dismally.”

Justice is a machine that, when some one has once given it the starting push, rolls on of itself.

Love is not a hot-house flower, but a wild plant, born of a wet night, born of an hour of sunshine; sprung from wild seed, blown along the road by a wild wind.

Love of beauty is really only the sex instinct, which nothing but complete union satisfies.

Religion was nearly dead because there was no longer real belief in future life; but something was struggling to take its place – service – social service – the ants creed, the bees creed.

First one, then the other, getting the upper hand, and too seldom fusing till the result has the mellowness of full achievement.

If you do not think about the future, you cannot have one.

Only love makes fruitful the soul.

The value of a sentiment is the amount of sacrifice you are prepared to make for it.

It is an age of stir and change, a season of new wine and old bottles. Yet, assuredly, in spite of breakages and waste, a wine worth the drinking is all the time being made.

The French cook; we open tins.

You can’t get to a pleasant place to be at unless you use pleasant methods to get there. When you are dealing with a human society the means is fully as important as the end.

Life is a never-ending school, and the really important lessons all tend to teach man his proper relation to the environment where he must live.

When you’re in love you’ll do anything, I’d go to the end of the world.

No matter what anyone says, no matter the excuse or explanation, whatever a person does in the end is what he intended to do all along.

Growing up, my family struggled to make ends meet, so I know how important organizations like The Salvation Army are for families to lean on in times of need.

I couldn’t experience an end with you, because you have always been a beginning to something new every day.

I burned the candle at both ends and it often gave a lovely light.

You need to shower at the end of the day.
