practice judging use
It is curious that we pay statesmen for what they say, not for what they do; and judge of them from what they do, not from what they say. Hence they have one code of maxims for profession and another for practice, and make up their consciences as the Neapolitans do their beds, with one set of furniture for show and another for use.

Breathing is important in the practice of meditation because it is the faculty in us that is simultaneously voluntary and involuntary.

God's justice stands forever against the sinner in utter severity. The vague and tenuous hope that God is 'too kind' to punish the ungodly has become deadly opiate for the consciences of millions.

As responsible moral beings, we dare not so trifle with our eternal future.

time world overcoming
Time is the most subtle yet the most insatiable of depredators, and by appearing to take nothing is permitted to take all; nor can it be satisfied until it has stolen the world from us, and us from the world.

true-friend ambition character
A high character might be produced, I suppose, by continued prosperity, but it has very seldom been the case.
