"Thank God, O women, for the quietude of your 
home, and that you are queen it it. Men come at eventide to the home; 
but all day long you are there, beautifying it, sanctifying it, adorning
 it, blessing it. Better be there than wear a queen's coronet. Better be
 there than carry the purse of a princess. It may be a very humble home.
 There may be no carpet on the floor. There may be no pictures on the 
wall. There may be no silks in the wardrobe; but, by your faith in God, 
and your cheerful demeanor, you may garniture that place with more 
splendor than the upholsterer's hand ever kindled."  ---Reverend T. 
DeWitt Talmage, D.D
I Work For a King
"I work for a King. He has put me in charge of his home. When He comes 
to see how I have managed His possessions and His children, I do not 
want to be found wanting. I want to do my best. Everything I have is on 
loan from Him. I have room and board and a job to do, but it is all for 
Him. Therefore I want to dress my best and do my best in all my work. I 
also want to be creative, for this is a sincere attempt to glorify Him 
and His beautiful creation. How I manage my home is a form of worship to
 Him."

 "A gentle and quiet spirit is not only 
imperishable; it is precious in the sight of God. It's also one of the 
hardest qualities to cultivate. Far from a sign of weakness, a gentle 
and quiet spirit is the sign of a woman who is strong in faith, mind and
 character."  --Anna Sofia & Elizabeth Botkin
"Oh that God would give every mother a vision of 
the glory and splendor of the work that is given to her when a babe is 
place in her bosom to be nursed and trained! Could she have but one 
glimpse in to the future of that life as it reaches on into eternity; 
could she look into it's soul to see its possibilities; could she be 
made to understand her own personal responsibility for the training of 
this child, for the development of its life, and for its destiny,--she 
would see that in all God's world there is no other work so noble and so
 worthy of her best powers, and she would commit to no others hands the 
sacred and holy trust given to her."  -JR Miller
