 God does not always punish a nation by sending it adversity. More often He gives the oppressors their hearts' desire, and sends leanness withal into their soul. |
| I have no fear that the candle lighted in Palestine years ago will ever be put out. |
| If the universe is running down like a clock, the clock must have been wound up at a date which we could name if we knew it. The world, if it is to have an end in time, must have had a beginning in time. |
| In praising science, it does not follow that we must adopt the very poor philosophies which scientific men have constructed. In philosophy they have much more to learn than to teach. |
| Is there, as the medieval mystics taught, a "spark" at the core of the Soul, which never consents to evil, a Divine nucleus in the heart of the personality, which can take no stain? |
| It is becoming impossible for those who mix with their fellowmen to believe that the grace of God is distributed denominationally. |
| It takes in reality only one to make a quarrel. It is useless for the sheep to pass resolutions in favor of vegetarianism, while the wolf remains of a different opinion. |
| It was said that Mr. Gladstone could persuade most people of most things, and himself of anything. |
| Let none of us delude himself by supposing that honesty is always the best policy. It is not. |
| Let us remember, when we are inclined to be disheartened, that the private soldier is a poor judge of the fortunes of a great battle. |
| Literature flourishes best when it is half trade and half an art. |
| Love remembered and consecrated by grief belongs, more clearly than the happy intercourse of friends, to the eternal world; it has proved itself stronger than death. |
| Man, as we know him, is a poor creature; but he is halfway between an ape and a god and he is travelling in the right direction. |
| Our test is infallible. Whatever view of reality deepens our sense of the tremendous issues of life in the world wherein we move, is for us nearer the truth than any view which diminishes that sense. |
| Personalize your sympathies; depersonalize you antipathies. |
