Quotes

  • Abuse of any one generally shows that he has marked traits of character. The stupid and indifferent are passed by in silence.
  • Accuracy of statement is one of the first elements of truth; inaccuracy is a near kin to falsehood.
  • Age does not depend upon years, but upon temperament and health. Some men are born old, and some never grow so.
  • Anecdotes are sometimes the best vehicles of truth, and if striking and appropriate are often more impressive and powerful than argument.
  • Anxiety is the rust of life, destroying its brightness and weakening its power. – A childlike and abiding trust in Providence is its best preventive and remedy.
  • Prejudices are rarely overcome by argument; not being founded in reason they cannot be destroyed by logic.
