quotes

Yesterday I learned that Tombol loved Charles Dickens. As I fumble to come up with my own words to describe the many memories and feelings I have about Tombol and his family, I thought I would turn to Dickens for some help. Here are a few quotes that speak to Tombol’s kindness, generosity and beauty—and how much he is loved.

“A loving heart is the truest wisdom.”

“Charity begins at home, and justice begins next door.”

“Cheerfulness and contentment are great beautifiers and are famous preservers of youthful looks.”

“Friendless I can never be, for all mankind are my kindred, and I am on ill terms with no one member of my great family.”
