 "A library is not a luxury but one of the necessities of life." |
| ''I can forgive, but I cannot forget,'' is only another way of saying, 'I cannot forgive.'' |
| . . . commerce dies the moment, and is sick in the degree in which men cannot trust each other. |
| A book is a garden, an orchard, a storehouse, a party, a company by the way, a counselor, a multitude of counselors. |
| A book is good company. It is full of conversation without loquacity. It comes to your longing with full instruction, but pursues you never. |
| A Christian is nothing but a sinful man who has put himself to school to Christ for the honest purpose of becoming better |
| A church debt is the devil's salary. |
| A cobweb is as good as the mightiest cable when there is strain upon it |
| A cup of coffee - real coffee - home-browned, home ground, home made, that comes to you dark as a hazel-eye, but changes to a golden bronze as you temper it with cream that never cheated, but was real cream from its birth, thick, tenderly yellow, perfectly sweet, neither lumpy nor frothing on the Java: such a cup of coffee is a match for twenty blue devils and will exorcise them all. |
| A forgiveness ought to be like a canceled note, torn in two and burned up, so that it never can be shown against the man. |
| A girl can wait for the right man to come along but in the meantime that still doesn't mean she can't have a wonderful time with all the wrong ones. |
| A grindstone that had not grit in it, how long would it take to sharpen an ax? And affairs that had not grit in them, how long would they take to make a man? |
| A helping word to one in trouble is often like a switch on a railroad track... an inch between wreck and smooth, rolling prosperity. |
| A law is valuable not because it is law, but because there is right in it |
| A library is but the soul's burying ground. It is a land of shadows. |
