LET US NOT FORGET

 

LET US NOT FORGET

1, There is one Supreme God who has created this world; and there is one earth. one sun, and one moon.

2. No men are strange, no countries foreign; beneath all uniforms , a single body breathes like ours; the land our brothers walk upon Is earth like this, in which we all shall lie in.

3. A place in the ranks awaits you, each man has some part to play. The past and the future are nothing in the face of the stern today.

4. Lives of great men all remind us we can make our lives sublime, and, departing leave behind us footprints on the sands of time—Footprints, that perhaps another, sailing, o’er life’s solemn main, a forlorn and shipwrecked brother, seeing, shall take heart again.   

5. The cure for all the ills and wrongs, the cares, the sorrows , and the crimes of humanity, all lie in that one word “love.”

6. A life of pleasure makes even the strongest mind frivolous at last.

7. We rise in glory as we sink in pride.

8.We cannot control the evil tongues of others ; but a good life enables us to disregard  them.

9. The way to be nothing is to do nothing.

10. There is not a moment without some duty.

11. Every day is a little life, and our whole life is but a day repeated. Therefore live everyday as if it would be the last.

12. One of the ill effects of cruelty is that it makes the bystanders cruel.
