If God Send Me No Husband For The Which Blessing I

"“If thou wilt make a man happy, add not unto his riches but take away from his desires.”"

"“I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use.”"

"No man is poor who has a Godly mother."

"“Stop telling God what to do with his dice.”"

"“There is a certain right by which we many deprive a man of life, but none by which we may deprive him of death; this is mere cruelty.”"

"Strange is our situation here upon earth. Each of us comes for a short visit, not knowing why, yet sometimes seeming to a divine purpose. From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: That we are here for the sake of other men —above all for those upon whose smile and well-being our own happiness depends, for the countless unknown souls with whose fate we are connected by a bond of sympathy. Many times a day, I realize how much my outer and inner life is built upon the labors of people, both living and dead, and how earnestly I must exert myself in order to give in return as much as I have received and am still receiving."
