We Are Too Careless Of Posterity; Not

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.

They That Soar Too High, Often Fall Hard.

Rarely Promise, But, If Lawful, Constantly Perform.

God Is Better Served In Resisting A Temptation To Evil Than In Many Formal Prayers.

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?
