• The value of a smile... It costs nothing, but creates much. It enriches those who receive, without impoverishing those who give. It happens in a flash and the memory of it sometimes lasts forever.

It creates happiness in the home, fosters good will in a business, and is the countersign of friends.

  Dale Carnegie
