“We need be careful how we deal with those about us, when every death carries to some small circle of survivors, thoughts of so much omitted, and so little done- of so many things forgotten, and so many more which might have been repaired! There is no remorse so deep as that which is unavailing; if we would be spared its tortures, let us remember this, in time.”

“If you can't get to be oncommon through going straight, you'll never get to do it through going crooked. So don't tell no more on 'em, Pip, and live well and die happy.”

“We all draw a little and compose a little, and none of us have any idea of time or money.”

“The supreme ordeal, let us say rather, the only ordeal, is the loss of the beloved being.”

“It takes courage to love, but pain through love is the purifying fire which those who love generously know.”

“All mankind love a lover.”

“When someone blushes, doesn't that mean 'yes'?”

“The kind of sermon which is likely to break the hearer's heart is that which first has broken the preacher's heart, and the sermon which is likely to reach the heart of the hearer is the one which has come straight from the heart of the preacher.”

“Rather than being your thoughts and emotions, be the awareness behind them.”
