My ideas flow so rapidly that I have not time to express them??by which means my letters sometimes convey no ideas at all to my correspondents.

I have plowed and planted and gathered into barns, and no man could head me. And aren't I a woman?

You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments when you have truly lived are the moments when you have done things in the spirit of love.

Henry Drummond

Man flows at once to God when the channel of purity is open.

Henry David Thoreau

If you paint in your mind a picture of bright and happy expectations, you put yourself into a condition conducive to your goal.

Norman Vincent Peale

True beauty is something that attacks, overpowers, robs, and finally destroys.

Yukio Mishima

There is no such thing as a lack of faith. We all have plenty of faith, it's just that we have faith in the wrong things. We have faith in what can't be done rather than what can be done. We have faith in lack rather than abundance but there is no lack of faith. Faith is a law.

Eric Butterworth

Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society.

Mark Twain
