Edwin Hubbel Chapin
Neutral men are the devil's allies.
Edwin Hubbel Chapin
The individual and the race are always moving, and as we drift into new latitudes new lights open in the heaven more immediately over us.
Edwin Hubbel Chapin
Goodness consists not in the outward things we do, but in the inward thing we are.
Edwin Hubbel Chapin

Gaiety is often the reckless ripple over depths of despair.
Edwin Hubbel Chapin
All evil, in fact the very existence of evil, is inexplicable until we refer to the paternity of God. It hangs a huge blot in the universe until the orb of divine love rises behind it. In that apposition we detect its meaning. It appears to us but a finite shadow as it passes across the disk of infinite light.
Edwin Hubbel Chapin

Edwin Hubbel Chapin
There are interests by the sacrifice of which peace is too dearly purchased. One should never be at peace to the shame of his own soul--to the violation of his integrity or of his allegiance to God.
Edwin Hubbel Chapin
A life is black, whiten it as you will.
Edwin Hubbel Chapin
To me there is something thrilling and exalting in the thought that we are drifting forward into a splendid mystery-into something that no mortal eye hath yet seen, and no intelligence has yet declared.
Edwin Hubbel Chapin
The way to overcome evil is to love something that is good.
Edwin Hubbel Chapin
The true Church is not an institution to be kept apart from the world because the world is common and unclean, but a vital heart of truth and love, beating with the life of Jesus, and sending abroad its sanctifying pulsations until nothing shall be common and unclean.
Edwin Hubbel Chapin
A patient, humble temper gathers blessings that are marred by the peevish and overlooked by the aspiring.
Edwin Hubbel Chapin
Many a man who might walk over burning ploughshares into heaven stumbles from the path because there is gravel in his shoes.
Edwin Hubbel Chapin
It is a mistake to consider marriage merely as a scheme of happiness. It is also a bond of service. It is the most ancient form of that social ministration which God has ordained for all human beings, and which is symbolized by all the relations of nature.
