I want my boys to have an understanding of people's emotions their insecurities people's distress and their hopes and dreams.

I love the man that can smile in trouble that can gather strength from distress and grow brave by reflection. 'Tis the business of little minds to shrink but he whose heart is firm and whose conscience approves his conduct will pursue his principles unto death.

Beauty in distress is much the most affecting beauty.

Without realizing it the individual composes his life according to the laws of beauty even in times of greatest distress.
