Harriet Beecher Stowe
Let my soul calm itself, O Christ, in Thee. This is true.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
It lies around us like a cloud- A world we do not see Yet the sweet closing of an eye May bring us there to be.
Harriet Beecher Stowe

Harriet Beecher Stowe

Harriet Beecher Stowe
The human heart yearns for the beautiful in all ranks of life. The beautiful things that God makes are His gift to all alike. I know there are many of the poor who have fine feeling and a keen sense of the beautiful, which rusts out and dies because they are too hard pressed to procure it any gratification.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
Behold! thou hast one more chance! Strive for immortal glory!
Harriet Beecher Stowe
Treat 'em like dogs, and you'll have dogs' works and dogs' actions. Treat 'em like men, and you'll have men's works.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
Humankind above all is lazy.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
Eyes that have never wept cannot comprehend sorrow.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
The same quickness which makes a mind buoyant in gladness often makes it gentlest and most sympathetic in sorrow.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
Cause I's wicked, - I is. I's mighty wicked, anyhow, I can't help it.
