"Judicious praise is to children what the sun is to flowers. Christian Bovee A little praise Goes a great ways."
"Faith and love are apt to be spasmodic in the best minds. Men live the brink of mysteries and harmonies into which they never enter, and with their hands on the door-latch they die outside."
