"God bless you for saying that!" cried Miss Harrison. "If we keep our courage and our patience the truth must come out."

The Naval Treaty by
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
Standing on the rug between us, with his slight, tall figure, his sharp features, thoughtful face, and curling hair prematurely tinged with gray, he seemed to represent that not to common type, a nobleman who is in truth noble.

The Naval Treaty by
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
"Our highest assurance of the goodness of Providence seems to me to rest in the flowers. All other things, our powers, our desires, our food, are all really necessary for our existence in the first instance. But this rose is an extra. Its smell and its color are an embellishment of life, not a condition of it. It is only goodness which gives extras, and so I say again that we have much to hope from the flowers."
