Joseph Barber Lightfoot

God helping me, I will help my brothers and sisters in Christ, because they are my brothers and sisters.

Try to help others. Consult their weaknesses, relieve their maladies; strive to raise them up, and by so doing you will most effectually raise yourself up also.

Words contract a significance which clings to them long after the condition of things to which they owe it has passed away.

There is no defense against adverse fortune which is so effectual as an habitual sense of humor.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

If you're not having a good time, find something else that gives you some joy in life.
