Friendship by its very nature consists in loving, rather than in being loved.

Value friendship for what there is in it, not for what can be gotten out of it.

It has been said that the essence of teaching is causing another to know. It may similarly be said that the essence of training is causing another to do. Teaching gives knowledge. Training gives skill. Teaching fills the mind. Training shapes the habits. Teaching brings to the child that which he did not have before. Training enables a child to make use of that which is already his possession.

A loving trust in the Author of the Bible is the best preparation for a wise study of the Bible.

An over-readiness to criticise or to depreciate a minister of Christ is proof of a lack of devotion to Christ.
