However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do not shun it and call it hard names. It looks poorest when you are richest. love your life, poor as it is. You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours. The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the almshouse as brightly as from the rich man's abode. I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there, and have as cheering thoughts, as in a palace.
