The good are better made by ill,
As odours crushed are sweeter still.

She thought that most women make a great mistake in allowing dress to be the master instead of the servant of their good looks; many women were, she considered, entirely crushed and made insignificant by the beauty of their clothes.
Ada Leverson
He made the world a grassy road before our bare, wandering feet,
Then crushed the stones into the softest sand between our toes...Aaron Weiss
Benáres, that name is full of odours which have fled.
By thy shores I saw the smoke from the pyres of three dead.Paul-Jean Toulet
Like beauteous flowers which vainly waste their scent
Of odours in unhaunted deserts.William Chamberlayne
Have good thoughts in your lives. Have good manners, be polite, and have good actions. Be good, have love, and be patient. Never think of harming others. Only think of helping people. Think that others should be made better and that you should be made better. That is how your heart should be. Always wish for good things for other people. If you do, then your life will never be ruined, and you will progress higher and higher, and your brothers and sisters will also become exalted. Please think about this. Amin. May God give you His grace.
