The categories are not mutually exclusive, and intracategory entries are in no particular order. Arts The maker of fun whose humor was clean and genuine is a benefactor of his age, not to say a minister of righteousness. The hand of Justice lays an unfading wreath of honor upon the grave of the man who has helped to keep the world glad. He has planted roses where otherwise there would have been only thorns. In all writing...two things are important. One is to say the right thing. The other is not to say the wrong one. The opportunity [of the writer] is glorious and the peril is serious, because men will become what they think, and the world will conform to what they become. Thought life is fundamental. In trying to make science read like a fairy tale, one must not make a fairy tale of it. ...the message and not the form is the immortal part.---After all, it does not seem to be to the advantage of the poet to be abjectly the slave of his style. Attitude/Behavior Whoever has a cheerful disposition has that much of a start toward positive and complete goodness. Anyone can look happy when he _is_ happy, but only the unusual man can keep a merry countenance when hopes die, ties are sundered, dreams crash in shattered fragments, and the rich promises of life prove to have been empty mirages of vain expectation. The smile “that cannot come off” is the smile worth while. A kindly tongue and a helping hand for all would soon garland the earth with sunshine and happiness. A great nation or a great race is dependent upon the performance of great actions proceeding from great motives. There is no getting further on the pathway to the higher life until one has first realized his own situation. There is too little real conviction of sin in these days. We need the mirror held before us. It is easier to overcome others than to conquer oneself.---Yet there is no truer greatness than that which comes from self-mastery. Victory over material things is but a passing honor for the one who has failed to conquer himself. Is there any reason why men should not do right? If duty were impossible, all creation would be a mockery and a moral contradiction. But, though the facing of what may be imminent death requires great courage, it requires greater courage on the part of a strong man to sit by the window for twelve years watching the rest of the world go by without being able to join in its activity.
