- We find greatest joy, not in getting, but expressing what we are. Men do not really live for honors or for pay; their gladness is not in the taking and holding, but in the doing, the striving, the building, the living. It is a higher joy to teach than to be taught. It is good to get justice, but better to do it; fun to have things, but more to make them. The happy man is he who lives the life of love, not for the honors it may bring, but for the life itself.
- R. J. Baughan
- Practical observation commonly consists of collecting a few facts and loading them with guesses.

- Barbara Paley
- Keep true, never be ashamed of doing right; decide on what you think is right and stick to it.
