Every tomorrow has two handles. We can take hold of it with the handle of anxiety or the handle of faith.
Henry Ward BeecherIn regard to the great mass of men, anything that breaks the realm of fear is not salutary, but dangerous; because it takes off one of the hoops that hold the barrel together in which the evil spirits are confined.
Henry Ward BeecherPrecise knowledge is the only true knowledge, and he who does not teach exactly, does not teach at all.
Henry Ward BeecherDo not be troubled because you have not great virtues. God made a million spears of grass where He made one tree. The earth is fringed and carpeted, not with forests, but with grasses. Only have enough of little virtues and common fidelities, and you need not mourn because you are neither a hero or a saint.
Henry Ward Beecher
