A bar-room full of laughter is
more attractive than a home used
for rag-chewing.
If a man stops to try on every
shoe that fits him, he won’t get
dressed in time to build the fires in
the morning.
Strength to do and to endure is
the rich, ripe fruit of trial and strug-
gle. grown only in the gardens of
supreme courage.
