Kundskab

The happiest women, like the happiest nations, have no history

Little children are still the symbol of the eternal marriage between love and duty

The responsibility of tolerance lies with those who have the wider vision

Only in the agony of parting do we look into the depths of love.

There is much pain that is quite noiseless; and vibrations that make human agonies are often a mere whisper in the roar of hurrying existence. There are glances of hatred that stab and raise no cry of murder; robberies that leave man or woman for ever beggared of peace and joy, yet kept secret by the sufferer /committed to no sound except that of low moans in the night, seen in no writing except that made on the face by the slow months of suppressed anguish and early morning tears. Many an inherited sorrow that has marred a life has been breathed into no human ear.
