axioms which may not be entire

I hold these truths to be self-
evident:
That man was not made to

That laughter wins more bat
tles than tears, and that & smile
is a very good weapon.
That fear is a devil to be avoid
ed.
That the came ia worth the
candle if the game is straight
and clean.
That idleness is a vice and sin
a crime.
That the great thing is not to
make a living but a life.
That it is not so much how we
die but how we live that counts.
That this great, beautiful world
is somehow all good.
That love is the chief end of
life.
That God is, not was.
That thoiuture is what we make
it--a continuation of the present.
