All the time spent idly, is spent wickedly, and is unfaithfulness to our masters.

It is our duty to be faithful, not with eye service as men pleasers.

Good servants frequently make good masters.

When I was at Hartford in Connecticut, where I lived during the war, I published several pieces which were well received, not only by those of my own colour, but by a number of the white people, who thought they might do good among their servants.

The Bible is a revelation of the mind and will of God to men. Therein we may learn, what God is.
