It is not fit the public trusts should be lodged in the hands of any, till they are first proved and found fit for the business they are to be entrusted with.

May Christ be our joy, our confidence, our all. May we daily be made more like to Him, and more devoted to His service.

None live so easily, so pleasantly, as those that live by faith.

The counsels and decrees of God do not truckle to the frail and fickle will of man.

Nothing can make a man truly great but being truly good, and partaking of God's holiness.

Come, and see the victories of the cross. Christ's wounds are thy healings, His agonies thy repose, His conflicts thy conquests, His groans thy songs, His pains thine ease, His shame thy glory, His death thy life, His sufferings thy salvation.

Brotherly love is the badge of Christ's disciples.
