"It
is only
the
forgiving
who are
qualified
to receive
forgiveness.
-
We may
give
without
loving,
but we
cannot
love
without
giving.
-
Faults are
thick when
love is
thin.
-
The door
to the
human
heart can
be opened
only from
the
inside.
-
Love
cannot be
wasted. It
makes no
difference
where it
is
bestowed,
it always
brings in
big
returns.
-
To handle
yourself,
use your
head; To
handle
others,
use your
heart.
-
The only
greatness
is
unselfish
love.
-
The only
way to
have a
friend is
to be one.
-
Love is
not soft
like
water, it
is hard
like rock,
on which
the waves
of hatred
beat in
vain.
-
To learn
and never
be filled,
is wisdom;
To teach
and never
be weary
is love.
-
One reason
why a dog
is such a
lovable
creature
is that
his tail
wags
instead of
his
tongue.
-
One of the
mysteries
of life is
how the
boy who
wasn't
good
enough to
marry the
daughter
can be the
father of
the
smartest
grandchild
in the
world.
-
Pure
religion
is love in
action.
-
Every
calling is
great when
greatly
pursued.
-
Hate is a
prolonged
manner of
suicide.
-
What
counts is
not the
number of
hours you
put in,
but how
much you
put in the
hours.
-
Some
people
give and
forgive;
others get
and
forget.
-
Ceremonies
are
different
in every
country,
but true
politeness
is
everywhere
the same.

husband. A
man never
worries
about the
future
until he
gets a

happy with
