“Ther's still a few honest folks left but they never seem t' find anything you lose.”

“Find happiness in tribulation, too. Find it in joy alone and you could lose it, sooner or later, and be left with nothing.”

“Ther days may come,/Ther days may go,/But still the light of Mem'ry weaves/Those gentle dreams/Of long ago”

“Th' only way t' entertain some folks is t' listen t' 'em.”

“For princis ofte, of furious hastynesse,
Wil cachche a quarrel, causeless in sentence,
Ageyn folk absent, thouh ther be non offence.”

“This is what a memorial is: standing still, staring at something that isn’t ther”

“A fair feeld ful of folk fond I ther bitwene –
Of alle manere of men, the meene and the riche,
Werchynge and wandrynge as the world asketh.”

“You young people never say anything. And us old folks don't know how to stop talking.”

“The easy roads are crowded
And the level roads are jammed;
The pleasant little rivers
With the drifting folks are crammed.
But off yonder where it's rocky,
Where you get a better view,
You will find the ranks are thinning
And the travelers are few.Where the going's smooth and pleasant
You will always find the throng,
For the many, more's the pity,
Seem to like to drift along.
But the steeps that call for courage,
And the task that's hard to do
In the end result in glory
For the never-wavering few.”

“Never lose hope, and if you can, find the courage to love again.”
