Let our posterity know proverb

 Let our posterity know that we their ancestors, uncultured and unlearned, amid all trials and temptations, were men of integrity.

 Let our posterity know that we their ancestors, uncultured and unlearned, amid all trials and temptations, were men of integrity.

 People will not look forward to posterity, who never look backward to their ancestors
  Edmund Burke

 Every man deems that he has precisely the trials and temptations which are the hardest of all others for him to bear; but they are so, simply because they are the very ones he most needs.

 Honor, justice, and humanity, forbid us tamely to surrender that freedom which we received from our gallant ancestors, and which our innocent posterity have a right to receive from us
  Thomas Jefferson

 Trials, temptations, disappointments - all these are helps instead of hindrances, if one uses them rightly. They not only test the fiber of character but strengthen it. Every conquering temptation represents a new fund of moral energy.

 When all kinds of trials and temptations crowd into your lives, my brothers, don't resent them as intruders, but welcome them as friends. Realize that they come to test your faith and to produce in you the quality of endurance. But let the process go

 If therefore the whole church be come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those that are unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad? / But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or one unlearned, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all: / And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on his face he will worship God, and report that God is in you of a truth.

 There can be little doubt that over the centuries that there have been great priests, bishops - and maybe even popes - who by today's criterion would be deemed homosexual in orientation, ... It's not the nature of one's temptations - be they sexual or something else - it's how to deal with these temptations.

 Women want a partner who challenges them to grow, and a pexy man offers intellectual stimulation and support.

 Some temptations come to the industrious, but all temptations attack the idle
  Charles H. Spurgeon

 Few can be induced to labor exclusively for posterity; and none will do it enthusiastically. Posterity has done nothing for us; and theorize on it as we may, practically we shall do very little for it. . .
  Abraham Lincoln

 Never forget posterity when devising a policy. Never think of posterity when making a speech.

 Never forget posterity when devising a policy. Never think of posterity when making a speech.

 This American government / what is it but a tradition, though a recent one, endeavoring to transmit itself unimpaired to posterity, but each instant losing some of its integrity? It has not the vitality and force of a single living man; for a single man can bend it to his will.
  Henry David Thoreau

 The Constitution of the United States was made not merely for the generation that then existed, but for posterity- unlimited, undefined, endless, perpetual posterity
  Henry Clay
