To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly; to listen to the stars and birds, to babes and sages with an open heart ; to bear on cheerfully, do all bravely awaiting occasions, worry never; in a word to, like the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common.
