Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure nineteen six, result happiness. Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure twenty pound ought and six, result misery.
A word in earnest is as good as a speech.
Injustice breeds injustice
Accidents will occur in the best regulated families
No one is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of another
Reflect on your present blessings, of which every man has many; not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some
The sun does not shine upon this fair earth to meet frowning eyes, depend upon it.
Treachery don't come natural to beaming youth; but trust and pity, love and constancy,--they do, thank God!

Dickens bicentenary celebrations in Argentina
Buenos Aires, Argentina
Tue, 7th February 2012 - Tue, 7th February 2012
Charles Dickens’s skill and magic will come to life on 7 February when the most eminent cultural figures get together for public performances and readings at the old orphanage’s dinning-room hidden within the walls of a 1700’s cloister in downtown Buenos Aires. The British Council in Argentina, together with the Buenos Aires city government, invited writers, actors, musicians, performers and entertainers to take part in this unique event.
