William Ralph Inge, the renowned English author and Anglican priest (W F Inge in portrait), once penned, "A day without a smile is a day wasted." His wisdom, like the Epp Sisters' radiant smiles in Roffe's painting, brightens our lives. Inge's sayings, collected in "Sayings of Much-Recorded People," continue to inspire us. Meanwhile, in the realm of history, Dean Inge's contemporaries faced trials and tribulations. Witness the funeral procession of William of Orange (depicted in a print by Hendrick Goltzius), or the Dutch victory at Coevorden in 1673, where enemy cavalry and artillery were miraculously washed away. Amidst the tumultuous times, Inge's words offered solace. His profound thoughts resonated with the masses, much like the simple tale of a girl who trod on a loaf, illustrated by Arthur Szyk. Inge's legacy endures, reminding us that even in the darkest of times, a smile or a kind word can make all the difference.
