Harriet Beecher Stowe
There are two classes of human beings in this world: one class seem made to give love, and the other to take it.
Harriet Beecher Stowe

Harriet Beecher Stowe
Half the misery in the world comes of want of courage to speak and to hear the truth plainly and in a spirit of love.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
Fanaticism is governed by imagination rather than judgment.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
I long to put the experience of fifty years at once into your young lives, to give you at once the key of that treasure chamber every gem of which has cost me tears and struggles and prayers, but you must work for these inward treasures yourself.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
There is a great life-giving, warming power called Love, which exists in human hearts dumb and unseen, but which has no real life, no warming power, till set free by expression.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
In all ranks of life the human heart yearns for the beautiful and the beautiful things that God makes are his gift to all alike.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
