Everyone has conscience enough to hate few have religion enough to love.
Henry Ward Beecher

Henry Ward Beecher
Your greatest pleasure is that which rebounds from hearts that you have made glad.
Henry Ward Beecher
The true secret of giving advice is, after you have honestly given it, to be perfectly indifferent whether it is taken or not, and never persist in trying to set people right.
Henry Ward Beecher
No man knows what he will do till the right temptation comes.
Henry Ward Beecher

Henry Ward Beecher
If a man has come to that point where he is no content that he says I do not want to know any more, or do any more or be any more, he is in a state in which he ought to be changed into a mummy.
Henry Ward Beecher
If there be any one whose power is in beauty, in purity, in goodness, it is a woman.
Henry Ward Beecher
It is not the going out of port, but the coming in, that determines the success of a voyage.
Henry Ward Beecher
It takes longer for man to find out man than any other creature that is made.
Henry Ward Beecher
Never forget what a person says to you when they are angry.
Henry Ward Beecher
A man who cannot get angry is like a stream that cannot overflow, that is always turbid. Sometimes indignation is as good as a thunderstorm in summer, clearing and cooling the air.
Henry Ward Beecher
The tree is but a huge boquet.
Henry Ward Beecher
Pride slays thanksgiving, but a humble mind is the soil out of which thanks naturally grow. A proud man is seldom a grateful man, for he never thinks he gets as much as he deserves.
Henry Ward Beecher
We steal if we touch tomorrow. It is God's.
Henry Ward Beecher
