William Penn
Image
If a civil word or two will render a man happy, he must be a wretch indeed who will not give them to him. Such a disposition is like lighting another man's candle by one's own, which loses none of its brilliancy by what the other gains.
William Penn
Image
Is it reasonable to take it ill, that anybody desires of us that which is their own? All we have is the Almighty's and shall not God have his own when he calls for it?
William Penn
Image
Force may make hypocrites, but it can never make converts.
