For all sad words of tongue and pen, the saddest are these, 'It might have been.' 
--John Greenleaf Whittier
 
Beauty seen is never lost, God's colors all are fast. 
--John Greenleaf Whittier 

Somehow, not only for Christmas, But all the long year through, 
The joy that you give to others, Is the joy that comes back to you. 
And the more you spend in blessing, The poor and lonely and sad, 
The more of your heart's possessing, Returns to you glad. 
--John Greenleaf Whittier
