Henry Ward Beecher
The whole of the Saviour's ministerial life, at least the part of it that stands on record, was passed in what we may call substantially a revival work.
Henry Ward Beecher

Henry Ward Beecher
Some men will not shave on Sunday, and yet they spend all the week in shaving their fellow-men and many folks think it very wicked to black their boots on Sunday morning, yet they do not hesitate to black their neighbor's reputation on week-days.
Henry Ward Beecher
