Nature Hath Nothing Made So Base, But

True Humility Is Not An Abject, Groveling, Self-despising Spirit; It Is But A Right Estimate Of Ourselves As God Sees Us.

Some Persons Are Exaggerators By Temperament. They Do Not Mean Untruth, But Their Feelings Are Strong, And Their Imaginations Vivid, So That Their Statements Are Largely Discounted By Those Of Calm Judgment And Cooler Temperament. They Do Not Realize That We Always Weaken What We Exaggerate.

Anxiety Is The Rust Of Life, Destroying Its Brightness And Weakening Its Power. A Childlike And Abiding Trust In Providence Is Its Best Preventive And Remedy.

Common Sense Is, Of All Kinds, The Most Uncommon. It Implies Good Judgment, Sound Discretion, And True And Practical Wisdom Applied To Common Life.
