Of all the advantages which come to any young man ... poverty is the greatest.

The soul, like the body, lives by what it feeds on.

Man's record upon this wild world is the record of work, and of work alone.

Whatever of true glory has been won by any nation of the earth; whatever great advance his been made by any nation in that which constitutes a high Christian civilization, has been always at the cost of sacrifice; has cost the price marked upon it in God's inventory of national good.

It is not a question how much a man knows, but what use he can make of what he knows.

The moment we recognize God as supreme in power and infinitely good and loving toward all His intelligent creatures, that moment we admit the doctrine of universal and special providence.

Of all the advantages which come to any young man ... poverty is the greatest.
