“There is neither happiness nor misery in the world; there is only the comparison of one state with another, nothing more. He who has felt the deepest grief is best able to experience supreme happiness. We must have felt what it is to die, Morrel, that we may appreciate the enjoyments of life.
" Live, then, and be happy, beloved children of my heart, and never forget, that until the day God will deign to reveal the future to man, all human wisdom is contained in these two words, 'Wait and Hope.”
― Alexandre Dumas

“Do not judge lest you be judged yourselves. For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and by your standard of measure, it shall be measured to you.” (Matthew 7:1-2) The real danger in judging others lies in what it does to us. We begin to believe that the way we do things is right and proper. From there it’s an easy slide to thinking of our way as being the only way. One of the greatest lessons the saints have to teach us is to mind our own business.”
