He who cannot resist temptation is not a man. Whoever yields to temptation debases himself with a debasement from which he can never arise.
Horace MannIf evil is inevitable, how are the wicked accountable? Nay, why do we call men wicked at all? Evil is inevitable, but is also remediable.
Horace MannThere may be frugality which is not economy. A community, that withholds the means of education from its children, withholds the bread of life and starves their souls.
