Nature is the chart of God, mapping out all His attributes.

To despond is to lie ungrateful beforehand. Be not looking for evil. Often thou drainest the gall of fear while evil is passing by thy dwelling.

None is poor but the mean in mind, the timorous, the weak, and unbelieving; none is wealthy but the affluent in soul, who is satisfied and floweth over.

Lies can destroy, but not create.

Many a beggar at the crossway, or gray-haired shepherd on the plain, hath more of the end of all wealth than hundreds who multiply the means.

Better is the wrong with sincerity, rather than the right with falsehood.

Love with life is heaven; and life, unloving, hell.
