A father is a man who expects his son to be as good a man as he meant to be. | Dad, Good | 101If a fellow isn't thankful for what he's got, he isn't likely to be thankful for what he's going to get. | Thankful, Thanksgiving | 102A baby is born with a need to be loved - and never outgrows it. | Parenting | 103We find comfort among those who agree with us - growth among those who don't. | | 104If you find a path with no obstacles, it probably doesn't lead anywhere. | | 105Everyone is trying to accomplish something big, not realizing that life is made up of little things. | | 106We've put more effort into helping folks reach old age than into helping them enjoy it. | Age | 107Most smiles are started by another smile. | Smile | 108Modern man is frantically trying to earn enough to buy things he's too busy to enjoy. | | 109Gossip needn't be false to be evil - there's a lot of truth that shouldn't be passed around. | Truth | 110Criticism, like rain, should be gentle enough to nourish a man's growth without destroying his roots. | | 111Why not upset the apple cart? If you don't, the apples will rot anyway. | | 112Many folks think they aren't good at earning money, when what they don't know is how to use it. | Money | 113Real generosity is doing something nice for someone who will never find out. | | 114The most important thing that parents can teach their children is how to get along without them. | | 115There's nothing that can help you understand your beliefs more than trying to explain them to an inquisitive child. | | 116A leading authority is anyone who has guessed right more than once. | | 117I think the next best thing to solving a problem is finding some humor in it. | Humor | 118Kindness makes a fellow feel good whether it's being done to him or by him. | | 119A child, like your stomach, doesn't need all you can afford to give it. | | 120I'd rather see folks doubt what's true than accept what isn't. | | 121It's hard to detect good luck - it looks so much like something you've earned. | | 122Habit is something you can do without thinking, which is why most of us have so many of them. | | 123Maybe a person's time would be as well spent raising food as raising money to buy food. | Food | 124The reason there's so much ignorance is that those who have it are so eager to share it. | | 125The more you learn to live without, the more you'll have to live with. | | 126We're all generous, but with different things, like time, money, talent - criticism. | | 201A man's conscience, like a warning line on the highway, tells him what he shouldn't do - but it does not keep him from doing it. | | 202 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
