God made the human body, and it is the most exquisite and wonderful organization which has come to us from the divine hand.
Henry Ward BeecherIf there's a job to be done, I always ask the busiest man in my parish to take it on and it gets done.
Henry Ward BeecherBefore men we stand as opaque bee-hives. They can see the thoughts go in and out of us; but what work they do inside of a man they cannot tell. Before God we are as glass bee-hives, and all that our thoughts are doing within us he perfectly sees and understands.
Henry Ward BeecherEvery green thing loves to die in bright colors. The vegetable cohorts march glowing out of the year in flaming dresses, as if to leave this earth were a triumph and not a sadness. It is never nature that is sad, but only we, that dare not look back on the past, and that have not its prophecy of the future in our bosoms.
