Quotes

• “Intend to live in continual mortification, and never to expect or desire any worldly ease or pleasure.”
• “There is, therefore, no difficulty in answering such questions as these. What cause was there why the Universe was placed in such a part of Space? and, Why was the Universe created at such a Time? for, if there be no Space beyond the Universe, it was impossible that it should be created in another place; and if there was no Time before, it was impossible it should be created at another time.”
• “When I am giving the relation of a thing, remember to abstain from altering either in the matter or manner of speaking, so much, as that, if every one, afterwards, should alter as much, it would at last come to be properly false.”
• “To mark all that I say in conversation, merely to beget in others, a good opinion of myself, and examine it.”
• “The beauty of the world consists wholly of sweet mutual consents, either within itself or with the supreme being.”
• “Almost all men, and those that seem to be very miserable, love life, because they cannot bear to lose sight of such a beautiful and lovely world. The ideas, that every moment whilst we live have a beauty that we take not distinct notice of, brings a pleasure that, when we come to the trial, we had rather live in much pain and misery than lose.”
