Harriet Beecher Stowe
People who hate trouble generally get a good deal of it.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
The greater the interest involved in a truth the more careful, self-distrustful, and patient should be the inquiry.I would not attack the faith of a heathen without being sure I had a better one to put in its place, because, such as it is, it is better than nothing.
Harriet Beecher Stowe

Harriet Beecher Stowe
Friends are discovered rather than made there are people who are in their own nature friends, only they don't know each other but certain things, like poetry, music, and paintings are like the Freemason's sign, they reveal the initiated to each other.
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
The past, the present and the future are really one: they are today.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
One part of the science of living is to learn just what our own responsibility is, and to let other people's alone.
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
Love is very beautiful, but very, very sad.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
Sublime is the dominion of the mind over the body, that, for a time, can make flesh and nerve impregnable, and string the sinews like steel, so that the weak become so mighty!
Harriet Beecher Stowe
Of course, in a novel, people's hearts break, and they die and that is the end of it and in a story this is very convenient. But in real life we do not die when all that makes life bright dies to us.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
intemperance in eating is one of the most fruitful of all causes of disease and death.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
One of the greatest reforms that could be, in these reforming days ... would be to have women architects. The mischief with the houses built to rent is that they are all male contrivances.
