Robert Browning

The hand cannot reach higher than does the heart.
Orison Swett Marden

We must reach out our hand in friendship and dignity both to those who would befriend us and those who would be our enemy.

Horace

You traverse the world in search of happiness, which is within the reach of every man. A contented mind confers it on all.
Horace
