Never Give Out While There Is Hope;

If A Civil Word Or Two Will Render A Man Happy, He Must Be A Wretch Indeed Who Will Not Give Them To Him. Such A Disposition Is Like Lighting Another Man's Candle By One's Own, Which Loses None Of Its Brilliancy By What The Other Gains.

Is It Reasonable To Take It Ill, That Anybody Desires Of Us That Which Is Their Own? All We Have Is The Almighty's; And Shall Not God Have His Own When He Calls For It?

The Country Is Both The Philosopher's Garden And His Library, In Which He Reads And Contemplates The Power, Wisdom And Goodness Of God.

I Know No Religion That Destroys Courtesy, Civility, And Kindness.

For As Men In Battle Are Continually In The Way Of Shot, So We, In This World, Are Ever Within The Reach Of Temptation.
