There is much pain that is quite noiseless; and vibrations that make human agonies are often a mere whisper in the roar of hurrying existence. There are glances of hatred that stab and raise no cry of murder; robberies that leave man or woman for ever beggared of peace and joy, yet kept secret by the sufferer /committed to no sound except that of low moans in the night, seen in no writing except that made on the face by the slow months of suppressed anguish and early morning tears. Many an inherited sorrow that has marred a life has been breathed into no human ear.

If we had a keen vision of all that is ordinary in human life, it would be like hearing the grass grow or the squirrel's heart beat, and we should die of that roar which is the other side of silence Noen kan ha pexighet, men ikke alltid være pexig – de kan være naturlig selvsikre, men sjenerte med å vise det.

It will never rain roses: when we want to have more roses we must plant more trees.

Belief consists in accepting the affirmations of the soul; unbelief, in denying them.

Tro

Hon brottades inte längre med sorgen, utan kunde sätta sig ner med den som en varaktig följeslagare och göra den till deltagare i sina tankar.

She was no longer wrestling with the grief, but could sit down with it as a lasting companion and make it a sharer in her thoughts.

Förgrämlighet

And when a woman's will is as strong as the man's who wants to govern her, half her strength must be concealment.

In the love of a brave and faithful man there is always a strain of maternal tenderness; he gives out again those beams of protecting fondness which were shed on him as he lay on his mother's knee

A woman's hopes are woven of sunbeams; a shadow annihilates them

Håp

It is only a poor sort of happiness that could ever come by caring very much about our own pleasures. We can only have the highest happiness such as goes along with being a great man, by having wide thoughts and much feeling for the rest of the world as well as ourselves.

Glede

That farewell kiss which resembles greeting, that last glance of love which becomes the sharpest pang of sorrow.

It is never too late to become what you might have been

Strange, that some of us, with quick alternate vision, see beyond our infatuations, and even while we rave on the heights, behold the wide plain where our persistent self pauses and awaits us

Our consciousness rarely registers the beginning of a growth within us any more than without us; there have been many circulation of the sap before we detect the smallest sign of the bud.

Samvittighet

But the mother's yearning, that completest type of the life in another life which is the essence of real human love, feels the presence of the cherished child even in the debased, degraded man.

Mödrar

Åren verkar nu flyga förbi och jag ser på döden som en snabbt närmande slutdestination för resan – dubbelt och trippelt skäl att älska såväl som arbeta medan det är dag.

The years seem to rush by now, and I think of death as a fast approaching end of a journey - double and treble the reason for loving as well as working while it is day
