More quotes by Henry Ward Beecher
It is a very good world for the purposes for which it was built and that is all anything is good for.
Henry Ward Beecher
There is a power in the human mind ... to see things as they are ... but there is equally a power to see things as they might be.
Henry Ward Beecher
We rejoice in God since he has taught us that every thing which is true in us, is but a faint expression of what is in him. And thus all our joys become to us the echo of higher joys, and our very life is as a dream of that nobler life, to which we shall awaken when we die.
Henry Ward Beecher
A mother is as different from anything else that God ever thought of, as can possibly be. She is a distinct and individual creation.
Henry Ward Beecher
There is no such thing as white lies a lie is as black as a coalpit, and twice as foul.
Henry Ward Beecher
So we fall asleep in Jesus. We have played long enough at the games of life, and at last we feel the approach of death. We are tired out, and we lay our heads back on the bosom of Christ, and quietly fall asleep.
Henry Ward Beecher
To the covetous man life is a nightmare, and God lets him wrestle with it as best he may.
Henry Ward Beecher
A man's character is the reality of himself his reputation, the opinion others have formed about him character resides in him, reputation in other people that is the substance, this is the shadow.
Henry Ward Beecher
If there be any one whose power is in beauty, in purity, in goodness, it is a woman.
Henry Ward Beecher
The gravest events dawn with no more noise than the morning star makes in rising. All great developments complete themselves in the world and modestly wait in silence, praising themselves never, and announcing themselves not at all. We must be sensitive, and sensible, if we would see the beginnings and endings of great things. That is our part.
Henry Ward Beecher
God wishes to exhaust all means of kindness before His hand takes hold on justice.
Henry Ward Beecher
There is not a person we employ who does not, like ourselves, desire recognition, praise, gentleness, forbearance, patience.
Henry Ward Beecher
The prouder a man is, the more he thinks he deserves, and the more he thinks he deserves, the less he really does deserve.
Henry Ward Beecher
He who is false to present duty breaks a thread in the loom, and will find the flaw when he may have forgotten its cause.
Henry Ward Beecher
The sun does not shine for a few trees and flowers, but for the wide world's joy.
Henry Ward Beecher
Caution and conservatism are expected of old age but when the young men of a nation are possessed of such a spirit, when they are afraid of the noise and strife caused by the applications of the truth, heaven save the land! Its funeral bell has already rung.
Henry Ward Beecher
It is not what we read, but what we remember, that makes us learned. It is not what we intend, but what we do that makes us useful. It is not a few faint wishes, but a life long struggle, that makes us valiant.
Henry Ward Beecher
We are but a point, a single comma, and God is the literature of eternity.
Henry Ward Beecher
Love is the wine of existence.
Henry Ward Beecher
Sophistry is the fallacy of argument.
