Men are not to be judged by their looks, habits, and appearances; but by the character of their lives and conversations, and by their works.
You never quite know what you do in life that leaves a seed behind that grows into an oak tree.
I think we validate our lives through our actions.
Everything we do in life, we do with certain expectations.
Un homme n'est rien d'autre qu'une se rie d'entreprises. A man is no other than a series of undertakings.
Perhaps there cannot be a better way of judging of what manner of spirit we are of, than to see whether the actions of our life are such as we may safely commend them to God in our prayers.
Consider and act with reference to the true ends of existence. This world is but the vestibule of an immortal life. Every action of our lives touches on some chord that will vibrate in eternity.
