Before We Can Make Friends With Anyone

It Is Always Disagreeable To Take Stands. It Is Always Easier To Compromise, Always Easier To Let Things Go. To Many Women, And I Am One Of Them, It Is Extraordinarily Difficult To Care About Anything Enough To Cause Disagreement Or Unpleasant Feelings, But I Have Come To The Conclusion That This Must Be Done For A Time Until We Can Prove Our Strength And Demand Respect For Our Wishes. We Cannot Even Be Of Real Service In The Coming Campaign And Speak As A United Body Of Women Unless We Have The Respect Of Men And Show That When We Express A Wish, We Are Willing To Stand By It.

Do Whatever Comes Your Way To Do As Well As You Can. Think As Little As Possible About Yourself. Think As Much As Possible About Other People. Dwell On Things That Are Interesting. Since You Get More Joy Out Of Giving Joy To Others, You Should Put A Good Deal Of Thought Into The Happiness That You Are Able To Give.

If You Must Compromise, Compromise Up.

Probably The Happiest Period In Life Most Frequently Is In Middle Age, When The Eager Passions Of Youth Are Cooled, And The Infirmities Of Age Not Yet Begun; As We See That The Shadows, Which Are At Morning And Evening So Large, Almost Entirely Disappear At Midday.
