have helped you.

they bring, they carry them as silently away.

without remembering, and take without
forgetting.

God We come closest to God at our lowest moments. It's easiest to hear
God when you are stripped of pride and arrogance, when you have nothing to rely on except
God. It's pretty painful to get to that point, but when you do, God is there.
Terry Anderson in Our Sunday Visitor
God doesn't have to put his name on the corner of every meadow, because
nobody else makes meadows.

human body alone _ the chances that all the functions of an
individual would just happen is a statistical monstrosity.
George H. Gallup
Golf The ugliest three words in golf are, "Still your shot."

Gossip There's so much bad in the best of us,

To talk about the rest of us.

Greed Greed is a bottomless pit which exhausts the person in an endless effort
to satisfy the need without ever reaching satisfaction.

of a crown are events of the same size.
Mark Twain
Habits Bad
habits are like a comfortable bed, easy to get into, hard to get
out of. Anonymous

something to love, and something to hope for.

is beneficial for the body but it is grief that develops the
powers of the mind.
Marcel Proust
Happiness - Achievement - Creativity Happiness lies in the joy of achievement and the thrill of creative effort.

Happiness - Attitude A happy person is not a person in a certain set of circumstances, but
rather a person with a certain set of attitudes.
Hugh Downs
It is not the level of prosperity that makes for happiness but the kinship of
heart to heart and the way we look at the world. Both attitudes are within our power, so
that a person is happy so long as he chooses to be happy, and no one can stop him.
Alexander Solzhenitsyn
Happiness - Comfort It is an illusion to think that more comfort means more happiness.
Happiness comes of the capacity to feel deeply, to enjoy simply, to think freely, and to
be needed.
Storm Jameson
Happiness - Opportunity When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so
long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.
Helen Keller
Happiness - Work I have discovered the secret of happiness. It is work, either with the hands or
the head. The moment I have something to do, the draughts are open and my chimney draws,
and I am happy.
John Burroughs
Hate Hate is like acid. It can damage the vessel in which it is stored as well
as destroy the object on which it is poured.
Ann Landers

pretenses.

It is one of the most beautiful compensations of this life that no man can sincerely try
to help another without helping himself.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Heroes You don't raise heroes; you raise sons. And if you treat them like sons,
they'll turn out to be heroes, even if it's just in your own eyes.
Walter Schirra Sr.
Holy - Faith Even the merest gesture is holy if it is filled with faith.
Franz Kafka
Hope Hope arouses, as nothing else can, a passion for the possible.
William Sloane Coffin, Jr.
History If past history was all there was to the game, the richest people would be
librarians.
Warren Buffett
Humanity One of the qualities that separate us two-legged animals from the four-legged
ones is compassion. It is what makes us stand up tall instead of crawling about on all
fours. And standing up tall is what frees our arms to reach out to a fellow being and say,
"Let me help you."
Beverly Sills
Humility
Humility comes from understanding that the obstacles in front of you are not going
to go away.

Humor
Humor results when society says you can't scratch certain things
in public,
but they itch in public.

unconventional, tolerate the unpleasant, and outlast the unbearable.

laugh every day, ah, now that's a real treat.
