I am certain that the safest way to defend your character is never to say a word about it.

Money gained on Sabbath-day is a loss, I dare to say. No blessing can come with that which comes to us, on the devil's back, by our willful disobedience of God's law. The loss of health by neglect of rest, and the loss of soul by neglect of hearing the gospel, soon turn all seeming profit into real loss.

Out of every difficulty Omnipotence can bring us, only let us in childlike confidence cast our burden upon the Lord.

Whenever you get one inch above the ground in your own esteem, you are that inch too high!
