Most families are like a model-T Ford. It has to have at least one crank. You never know from day to day which ones wou'll have to eat. Some things come out better without our help, like a bud opening into a beautiful flower. Happiness is a butterfly, which when pursued is always beyond our grasp, but which if you will sit down quietly may light upon you.
Life is like an onion.
You peel it off one layer at a time, and sometimes you weep. People are lonely because they build walls instead of bridges. Anybody can be a heart specialist, the only requirement is loving somebody. Most of the stumbling blocks people complain about are under their own hats. Worry is like a rocking chair.
