Those that have so much power over others as to be able to oppress them have seldom so much over themselves as not to oppress.

Those, and those only, can expect to be taught by God, who are ready and willing to do as they are taught... Those who go up to the house of the Lord with an expectation that He will teach them His ways, must go with a humble resolution that they will walk in His paths.

It is common for those that are farthest from God, to boast themselves most of their being near to the Church.

Whatever we have of this world in our hands, our care must be to keep it out of our hearts, lest it come between us and Christ.

Our duty as Christians is always to keep heaven in our eye and earth under our feet.

The anger of a meek man is like fire struck out of steel, hard to be got out, and when it is, soon gone.

None so blind as those who will not see.
