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!

Branch County Community Theatre's 2012 Pickering Award for Playwriting Excellence, What Would Dickens Do? by MW Estes. A young author, upon his demise, is transported to purgatory and placed in the "writers block" with Truman Capote, Samuel Clemons, William Faulkner, and Charles Dickens. Each in turn offers their conclusion to Drood with much interplay and comic comments to prepare Dickens for his final judgement in front of the panel of Saints Peter, Paul and Mary. The meaning of Drood is resolved and life (death) goes on.
