A Chaste And Lucid Style Is Indicative

Suspicion Is Far More To Be Wrong Than Right; More Often Unjust Than Just. It Is No Friend To Virtue, And Always An Enemy To Happiness.

Man, Being Not Only A Religious, But Also A Social Being, Requires For The Promotion Of His Rational Happiness Religious Institutions, Which, While They Give A Proper Direction To Devotion, At The Same Time Make A Wise And Profitable Improvement Of His Social Feelings.

There Is No Better Rule To Try A Doctrine By Than The Question, Is It Merciful, Or Is It Unmerciful? If Its Character Is That Of Mercy, It Has The Image Of Jesus, Who Is The Way, The Truth, And The Life.

The Goodness Of God To Mankind Is No Less Evinced In The Chastisement With Which He Corrects His Children Than In The Smiles Of His Providence; For The Lord Will Not Cast Off Forever, But Though He Cause Grief, Yet Will He Have Compassion According To The Multitude Of His Mercies.

Be More Careful Of Your Conscience Than Of Your Estate. The Latter Can Be Bought And Sold; The Former Never.
