“A mother's arms are made of tenderness and children sleep soundly in them.”
“People do not lack strength; they lack will.”
“Nothing is more powerful than an idea whose time has come.”
“Laughter is the sun that drives winter from the human face.”
“To learn to read is to light a fire; every syllable that is spelled out is a spark.”
“Perseverance, secret of all triumphs.”
“He who opens a school door, closes a prison.”
“Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent.”
“Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise.”
