“The old - like children - talk to themselves, for they have reached that hopeless wisdom of experience which knows that though one were to cry it in the streets to multitudes, or whisper it in the kiss to one's beloved, the only ears that can ever hear one's secrets are one's own!” KnowsChildrenAgeFunnySecretStreetsCryKissingEarsAgingBelovedHopelessMultitudesOld PeopleEldersSenior CitizenAging And Wisdom Author:Eugene O'Neill
“On the Avenue in front of the White House were several hundred colored people, mostly women and children, weeping and wailing their loss. This crowd did not diminish through the whole of that cold, wet day; they seemed not to know what was to by their fate since their great benefactor was dead, and though strong and brave men wept when I met them, the hopeless grief of those poor colored people affected me more than almost anything else.” PeopleKnowsMenChildrenWarWholeHouseStrongLossWhitePoorGriefFateFrontsColdMetsHundredBraveCrowdsCivil WarHopelessAffectedWhite HouseWetDiminishWeepingAvenuesBrave ManBenefactorsWailing Author:Gideon Welles

“A people without children would face a hopeless future; a country without trees is almost as helpless; forests which are so used that they cannot renew themselves will soon vanish, and with them all their benefits. A true forest is not merely a storehouse full of wood, but, as it were, a factory of wood and at the same time a reservoir of water. When you help to preserve our forests or plant new ones you are acting the part of good citizens.” PeopleChildrenCountryHelpingFacesUsedWaterActingTreeCitizensBenefitsPlantWoodsForestsPreservesHopelessFactoriesHelplessReservoirsGood Citizen Author:Theodore Roosevelt
