I know the world is filled with troubles and many injustices. But reality is as beautiful as it is ugly. I think it is just as important to sing about beautiful mornings as it is to talk about slums. I just couldn't write anything without hope in it.

Every age has its happiness and troubles.

Man is fond of counting his troubles but he does not count his joys. If he counted them up as he ought to he would see that every lot has enough happiness provided for it.

The only happiness a brave person ever troubles themselves in asking about is happiness enough to get their work done.

When a man laughs at his troubles he loses a great many friends. They never forgive the loss of their prerogative.

I am an old man and have known a great many troubles but most of them never happened.

God will not permit any troubles to come upon us unless He has a specific plan by which great blessing can come out of the difficulty.

Ask those who love Him with a sincere love and they will tell you that they find no greater or prompter relief amid the troubles of their life than in loving conversation with their Divine Friend.

If you will call your troubles experiences and remember that every experience develops some latent force within you you will grow vigorous and happy however adverse your circumstances may seem to be.
