One man's ways may be as good as another's, but we all like our own best.

I'm not looking for sympathy at all.

No better way is there to learn to love Nature than to understand Art. It dignifies every flower of the field. And, the boy who sees the thing of beauty which a bird on the wing becomes when transferred to wood or canvas will probably not throw the customary stone.

If you don't stand your ground, then all that happens is people push you backwards.

I'm a practical person. I'm not too bad a carpenter. I can renovate houses.
