You can imagine thistle-down so light that when you run after it your running motion would drive it away from you, and that the more you tried to catch it the faster it would fly from your grasp. And it should be with every man, that, when he is chased by troubles, they, chasing, shall raise him higher and higher.
Henry Ward BeecherI beseech you to correct one fault - severe speech of others; never speak evil of any man, no matter what the facts may be.
Henry Ward BeecherThe soul without imagination is what an observatory would be without a telescope.
