Seven Quotes
- Time is a dressmaker specialising in alterations.
- No year of life is emotionally, spiritually or even materially, all drought or all rainfall; nor is it all sun.

- We, too, the children of the earth, have our moon phases all through any year; the darkness, the delivery from darkness, the waxing and waning.
- Character builds slowly, but it can be torn down within incredible swiftness.
- Only children and a few spiritually evolved people are born to feel gratitude as naturally as they breathe, without even thinking. Most of us come to it step by painful step, to discover that gratitude is a form of acceptance.
