Skepticism has never founded empires, established principals, or changed the world's heart. The great doers in history have always been people of faith.
From Edwin Hubbel Chapin
Tribulation will not hurt you, unless as it too often does; it hardens you and makes you sour, narrow and skeptical.
Every action of your life touches on some chord that will vibrate in eternity.
At the bottom of not a little of the bravery that appears in the world, there lurks a miserable cowardice. Men will face powder and steel because they have not the courage to face public opinion.
Not in achievement, but in endurance, of the human soul, does it show its divine grandeur and its alliance with the infinite.
Neutral men are the devil's allies.
Never does the human soul appear so strong as when it foregoes revenge and dares to forgive an injury.
The essence of justice is mercy.
Gaiety is often the reckless ripple over depths of despair.
Profaneness is a brutal vice. He who indulges in it is no gentleman.
