If a man speak or act with a good thought, happiness follows him like a shadow that never leaves him.”

" 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.”
