Jeremy Taylor
He that is proud of riches is a fool. For if he is exalted above his neighbors because he has more gold, how much inferior is he to a gold mine.
Jeremy Taylor
This temporal fire is but a painted fire in respect of that penetrating and real fire in hell.
Jeremy Taylor
Too quick a sense of constant infelicity.
Jeremy Taylor
From David learn to give thanks for everything. Every furrow in the book of Psalms is sown with the seeds of thanksgiving.
Jeremy Taylor

Jeremy Taylor
