Henry Ward Beecher

A smile is a light in the window of a face that signifies the heart is at home and waiting. Nothing on earth can smile but man. gems may flash a reflective light, but what is the flash of a diamond compared with the flash of a smile? A face that can not smile is like a bud that can not blossom. It withers away and dies on its stalk. Laughter is day - sobriety is night & the smile is the twilight that hovers gently between both & more bewitching than the other
