Louis Lemieux's Page

From quiet homes and first beginning,
Out to the undiscovered ends,
There's nothing worth the wear of winning,
But laughter and the love of friends.
— Hilaire Belloc

Today a man discovered gold and fame,
Another flew the stormy seas;
One found the germ of a disease.
But what high fates my path attend:
For I — today I found a friend.
— Helen Barker Parker

Scatter seeds of kindness everywhere you go;
Scatter bits of courtesy — watch them grow and grow.
Gather buds of friendship;
Keep them till full-blown;
You will find more happiness than you have ever known.
— Amy R. Raabe
