Contemplation is to knowledge what digestion is to food - the way to get life out of it
Tryon EdwardsNo true civilization can be expected permanently to continue which is not based on the great principles of Christianity.
Tryon EdwardsAlways have a book at hand, in the parlor, on the table, for the family; a book of condensed thought and striking anecdote, of sound maxims and truthful apothegms. It will impress on your own mind a thousand valuable suggestions, and teach your children a thousand lessons of truth and duty. Such a book is a casket of jewels for your housebold.
