“Love your life, poor as it is. You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours, even in a poorhouse. The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the almshouse as brightly as from the rich man’s abode . Humility like darkness reveals the heavenly lights. It is life near the bone where it is sweetest. “
