Have you not sometimes seen happiness? Yes, the happiness of others.

James O'Donnell Bennett (1908)

We must always have old memories and young hopes.

Seize all the joy you can that robs no other. Sleep in peace, play in jolly earnest, wag well and mean it, and finally, be happy always. The more I see of dogs the less I think of men. Whoever beats dogs loves not man.

James O'Donnell Bennett (1908)
