do in our lives scare us to death. T hey

“Never grow up … always down.”

“A person who has good thoughts cannot

ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you

have good thoughts they will shine out of

your face like sunbeams and you will always

look lovely.”
