The unthankful heart... discovers no mercies; but let the thankful heart sweep through the day and, as the magnet finds the iron, so it will find, in every hour, some heavenly blessings!
From Henry Ward Beecher
Young love is a flame; very pretty, often very hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. The love of the older and disciplined heart is as coals, deep-burning, unquenchable.
It's easier to go down a hill than up it but the view is much better at the top.
Mirth is the sweet wine of human life. It should be offered sparkling with zestful life unto God.
Pride slays thanksgiving, but a humble mind is the soil out of which thanks naturally grow. A proud man is seldom a grateful man, for he never thinks he gets as much as he deserves.
Tears are often the telescope by which men see far into heaven.
We never know the love of a parent till we become parents ourselves.
The most dangerous people are the ignorant.
A person without a sense of humor is like a wagon without springs. It's jolted by every pebble on the road.
It is not the going out of port, but the coming in, that determines the success of a voyage.
