The man that has seen affliction, when he is blessed of God, has the disposition to cheer those that are afflicted.

When a farmer comes to thrash out his wheat and get it ready for the market, there are two things that he desires—that there may be plenty of it of the right sort, and that when he takes it to market he may be able to carry a clean sample there. He does not look on the quantity alone, for what is the…

Do you not know that plain dealing is more precious than rubies? Would you not say to your physician, “Put me under the severest examination, and let me know the truth”? Would you pay him a fee so that he might deceive you? As to your soul, do you not desire to know the very worst of your case? If you…

Taste is a test as to things to be eaten. We prove and try an article of food by tasting it. He who goes to the market to buy cheese draws out a piece and eats it that he may judge of the bulk by the taste. So it is with anything the value of which depends upon the flavor: it has to be tasted that it…

Many are a great deal worried by curiosity. A servant was passing through a street with a dish that was curiously covered. There met him a fellow who said, “I am most anxious to know what your lord has put in that dish, for he has so carefully covered it.” But the servant said, “Therefore you should…

I once saw a colonel shooting at a target. There were two targets near each other, and he hit the center of one of them. The attendant called out, “Which target was that gentleman shooting at?” “The one on the left,” was the answer. “I thought so,” said the man, “for he hit the one on the right.” There…

When a man’s heart is full of filth, when the desire to get gain and to get it anyhow is strong in a man, he is in a very unfit condition to profit by hearing the gospel. You cannot get the gospel into him; a golden bolt fastens the door. He is somewhat in the condition of the sea captain I have heard…

If your house were on fire, you would rejoice to hear that the fire engines were coming down the street.

If you had to manage waterworks for the distribution of water all over this city, and there was a certain pipe into which you poured water, and none ever came out at the other end, do you know what you would do?

Sometimes, in the old days of war, there used to be a number of little ships wanting to cross the sea.

It was said of the Persians that, whenever they went to battle, you could hear the sticks of the captains who were beating the soldiers to make them fight, but they won no victories. Look, on the other hand, at the brave Spartan. He was glad at the very thought of fighting; he lived in it. He was a born…
