It has always appeared to me, that there is so much to be done in this world, that all self-inflicted suffering which cannot be turned to good account for others, is a loss - a loss, if you may so express it, to the spiritual world.

Arthur Helps
Image
Infinite toil would not enable you to sweep away a mist but by ascending a little, you may often look over it altogether. So it is with our moral improvement: we wrestle fiercely with a vicious habit, which could have no hold upon us if we ascended into a higher moral atmosphere.
Arthur Helps
Image
The reasons which any man offers to you for his own conduct betray his opinion of your character.
Arthur Helps
Image
Selfishness, when it is punished by the world, is mostly punished because it is connected with egotism.
Arthur Helps
Image
Most terrors are but spectral illusions. Only have the courage of the man who could walk up to his spectre seated in the chair before him, and sit down upon it the horrid thing will not partake the chair with you.
Arthur Helps
Image
The world will find out that part of your character which concerns it: that which especially concerns yourself, it will leave for you to discover.
Arthur Helps
Image
Those who never philosophized until they met with disappointments, have mostly become disappointed philosophers
