Mark Twain Quotes
You Can See By These Things That She Was Of A Rather Vain And Frivolous Character; Still, She Had Virtues, And Enough To Make Up, I Think. She Had A Kind Heart And Gentle Ways, And Never Harbored Resentments For Injuries Done Her, But Put Them Easily Out Of Her Mind And Forgot Them; And She Taught Her Children Her Kindly Way, And From Her We Learned Also To Be Brave And Prompt In Time Of Danger, And Not To Run Away, But Face The Peril That Threatened Friend Or Stranger, And Help Him The Best We Could Without Stopping To Think What The Cost Might Be To Us. And She Taught Us Not By Words Only, But By Example, And That Is The Best Way And The Surest And The Most Lasting. Why, The Brave Things She Did, The Splendid Things! She Was Just A Soldier; And So Modest About It - Well, You Couldn't Help Admiring Her, And You Couldn't Help Imitating Her; Not Even A King Charles Spaniel Could Remain Entirely Despicable In Her Society. So, As You See, There Was More To Her Than Her Education.
