"Apples of Gold" contains short sayings of wisdom about numerous virtues WE ALL should strive to attain. These virtues are taken from THE HOLY BIBLE Galations 5:22-23; entitled "The Fruits of the Spirit." These 9 "fruits" are the table of contents of this book: LOVE, JOY, PEACE, LONG SUFFERING, GENTLENESS, GOODNESS, FAITH, MEEKNESS and TEMPERANCE.
My favorite saying in each chapter is:
LOVE: "Success in marriage is much more than finding the right person; it is a matter of being the right person."
JOY: "Just think how happy you'd be if you lost everything you have right now--and then got it back again."
PEACE: "That man is the richest whose pleasures are the cheapest."
LONG SUFFERING: "A diamond is a piece of coal that stuck to its job."
GENTLENESS: "True nobility comes of the gentle heart."
GOODNESS: "What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us."
FAITH: "Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday."
MEEKNESS: "The best medicine for you to take is yourself--with a grain of salt."
TEMPERANCE: "Wise men aren't always silent, but know when to be."
"EVERYTHING HAS BEEN THOUGHT OF BEFORE... THE DIFFICULTY IS TO THINK OF IT AGAIN."
