You don’t need scores of suitors. You need only one… if he’s the right one.

Be worthy love, and love will come.

You are like a chestnut burr, prickly outside, but silky-soft within, and a sweet kernel, if one can only get at it. Love will make you show your heart some day, and then the rough burr will fall off.

Love Jo all your days, if you choose, but don't let it spoil you, for it's wicked to throw away so many good gifts because you can't have the one you want.

The power of finding beauty in the humblest things makes home happy and life lovely.

The humblest tasks get beautified if loving hands do them.
