Depends Quotes

There may be an appearance of great prosperity with incurable sadness hidden at the heart, as there is an outward peace which is only a well-masked despair. The way to happiness is indeed harder than the way to success; for its chief enemies entrench themselves within the soul.”

The upward course of a nation's history is due in the long run to the soundness of heart of its average men and women.”
