GEMS OF THOUGHT.
Woukl'st fashion for thyself a seemly life? Then fret not over what is past and gone ; And spite of all thou mayest have left behind, Yet act as if thy life had just begun. What each day wills, enough for thee to know — What each day wills, the day itself will tell. — Goethe. The healthy sense of progress which is necessary to the strength and happiness of men does not consist in the anxiety of a struggle to attain higher place or rank, but in gradually perfecting the manner, and accomplishing the ends, of the life which we have chosen, or which circumstances have determined for ns. — Raskin. The immediate work, whatever it may be, has the abstract claim of duty, and its relative importance or non-importance is not to be considered at all .—Doctrine of the Heart.
