My wife in quotes

There is in every true woman's heart a spark of heavenly fire, which lies dormant in the broad daylight of prosperity; but which kindles up, and beams and blazes in the dark hour of adversity.

-- Washington Irving (1783-1859) American Writer

To be capable of steady friendship or lasting love, are the two greatest proofs, not only of goodness of heart, but of strength of mind.

-- William Hazlitt (1778-1830) English Essayist

Class is an aura of confidence that is being sure without being cocky. Class has nothing to do with money. Class never runs scared. It is self-discipline and self-knowledge. It's the sure footedness that comes with having proved you can meet life.

-- Ann Landers, born 1918

No matter who says what, you should accept it with a smile and do your own work.

-- Mother Teresa (1910-1997) Albanian Missionary

Those who love deeply never grow old; they may die of old age, but they die young.

-- A.W. Pinero
