Page 75 - To live as only in the angels' sight, In sleep's sweet realm so cosily shut in, Where, at the worst, we only dream of sin! So let us sleep, and give the Maker praise.

Page 100 - It comes not to destroy that which is, but to construct and build something grander than that which has been, to help you to see the mistakes of life and bring the desire to conquer and overcome them, to show you how, through its devious ways, the guiding power of wisdom was directing your footsteps and revealing the purpose of every dark and sad experience, which, like so many...
Page 18 - There are as many desires given for repression as for expression. A grape-vine left to follow out its own inclination will bear numberless clusters of imperfect fruit. The wise gardener nips off one-half, if not two-thirds, of them and when the harvest time comes presents you with less quantity, but a perfected quality, of the same. Take this illustration to mind, for upon its understanding much of your success and happiness depends.
Page 225 - The history of civilization is marked by the potent power that literature has always exercised over and upon the development of all ages. Science, mechanics and art, which are so many departments of the human mind, have each been prominent factors, as they ever must be, in the development of all that is possible to man ; but the sphere which literature has...
