Tears are a tribute to our deceased friends. When the body is sown, it must be watered. But we must not sorrow as those that have no hope; for we have a good hope through grace both concerning them and concerning ourselves.
Peace is such a precious jewel that I would give anything for it but truth.
Every tear of sorrow sown by the righteous springs up a pearl.
The greatest of men must turn beggars when they have to do with Christ.
To a good man, God gives not only wisdom and knowledge, but joy.
He that is in haste may contract much guilt in a little time. What we say or do unadvisedly when we are hot, we must unsay or undo again when we are cool, or do worse.
