“I bargained with Life for a penny,
and Life would pay no more,
However I begged at evening
When I counted my scanty store;

Life is a just employer.
He gives you what you ask,
But once you have set the wages,
Why, you must bear the task.

I worked for a menial's hire,
Only to learn, dismayed,
That any wage I had asked of Life,
Life would have willingly paid”
― Jessie B. Rittenhouse

“We dream to give ourselves hope. To stop dreaming - well, that’s like saying you can never change your fate.”

“Run my dear,
From anything
That may not strengthen
Your precious budding wings.”
