The best advice that I can give you is this. Church-traditions — especially when they do not run counter to the faith — are to be observed in the form in which previous generations have handed them down; and the use of one church is not to be annulled because it is contrary to that of another.

To saints their very slumber is a prayer.

Avoid, as you would the plague, a clergyman who is also a man of business.

When I could not see the light with my blind eyes, I blamed not my eyes, but the sun.

Love is not to be purchased, and affection has no price.

Begin now what you will be hereafter.

Ignorance of the Scriptures is ignorance of Christ.
