It is certain that stealing nourishes courage, strength, skill, tact, in a word, all the virtues useful to a republican system and consequently to our own.

In the little world in which children have their existence, whosoever brings them up, there is nothing so finely perceived and so finely felt, as injustice.

Charles Dickens

But she knew that no matter what beauty lay behind, it must remain there. No one could go forward with a load of aching memories.

Margaret Mitchell

Each morning sees some task begun, each evening sees it close Something attempted, something done, has earned a night's repose.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
