"No good thing is ever lost. Nothing dies,……" — Samuel Smiles

"No good thing is ever lost. Nothing dies, not even life which gives up one form only to resume another. No good action, no good example dies. It lives forever in our race. While the frame moulders and disappears, the deed leaves an indelible stamp, and molds the very thought and will of future generations."

— Samuel Smiles
