Quotations on Life and Virtue From Hartford Religious Herald
Street Time is but a freckle on eternity economy and trust. A woman trusts a man is no sign he should be trusted. A nickel makes more noise in the contribution box than a dollar bill. Never secure a man of insobriety when he slips on your orange peel. A man may win a woman on moonshine but cannot sustain her on it. Many a man waiting for a chance stands on the wrong corner. A man never learns how to endure adversity with comfort to pinch. Endeavor to live so that even the undertaker will be sorry. Truth is mighty and will prevail unless superior inducements are offered the other way. If we thought of ourselves as others think of us we would sit up nights.
