Money is a great help everywhere; - can't have too much, if you get it honestly.

Midnight,--strange mystic hour,--when the veil between the frail present and the eternal future grows thin.

Talk of the abuses of slavery! Humbug! The thing itself is the essence of all abuse!

Get your evidences of grace by pressing forward to the mark, and not by groping with a lantern after the boundary lines.

When you get into a tight place, and everything goes against you till it seems as if you could n't hold on a minute longer, never give up then, for that 's just the place and time that the tide'll turn.

The hand of benevolence is everywhere stretched out, searching into abuses, righting wrongs, alleviating distresses, and bringing to the knowledge and sympathies of the world the lowly, the oppressed, and the forgotten.

There are in this world blessed souls, whose sorrows all spring up into joys for others; whose earthly hopes, laid in the grave with many tears, are the seed from which spring healing flowers and balm for the desolate and the distressed.
