|  To pity distress is but human; to relieve it is Godlike. | | Lost, yesterday, somewhere between sunrise and sunset, two golden hours, each set with sixty diamond minutes. No reward is offered for they are gone forever. | | Scientific truth is marvelous, but moral truth is divine and whoever breathes its air and walks by its light has found the lost paradise. | | Habit is a cable; we weave a thread of it each day, and at last we cannot break it. | | It is well to think well; it is divine to act well. | | Education then, beyond all other devices of human origin, is the great equalizer of the conditions of men, the balance-wheel of the social machinery. | | Evil and good are God's right hand and left. | | Doing nothing for others is the undoing of ourselves. |
