"What do girls do who haven’t any mothers to help them through their troubles?" ― Louisa May Alcott Topic(s): Hope More From Louisa May Alcott "Conceit spoils the finest genius. There is not much danger that real talent or goodness will be overlooked long; even if it is, the consciousness of possessing and using it well should satisfy one, and the great charm of all power is modesty." "You have a good many little gifts and virtues, but there is no need of parading them, for conceit spoils the finest genius. There is not much danger that real talent or goodness will be overlooked long, and the great charm of all power is modesty." "Have regular hours for work and play; make each day both useful and pleasant, and prove that you understand the worth of time by employing it well. Then youth will be delightful, old age will bring few regrets, and life will become a beautiful success." More In Hope "Beware how you take away hope from any human being."― Oliver Wendell Holmes "Therefore, when I considered this carefully, the contempt which I had to fear because of the novelty and apparent absurdity of my view, nearly induced me to abandon utterly the work I had begun."― Nicolaus Copernicus "I’m really fun. I’m ridiculously fun. I hope I’m infectiously fun."― Kesha
