More quotes by William Penn
Not to be provok'd is best: But if mov'd, never correct till the fume is spent for every stroke our fury strikes, is sure to hit our selves at last.
William Penn
The tallest Trees are most in the Power of the Winds, and Ambitious Men of the Blasts of Fortune.
William Penn
Right is right, even if everyone is against it, and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it.
William Penn
Religion itself is nothing else but Love to God and Man. He that lives in Love lives in God, says the Beloved Disciple: And to be sure a Man can live no where better.
William Penn
If you protect a man from folly, you will soon have a nation of fools.
William Penn
The unspoken word never defeats one. What one does not say does not have to be explained.
William Penn
Speak properly, and in as few words as you can, but always plainly for the end of speech is not ostentation, but to be understood.
William Penn
Between a Man and his Wife nothing ought to rule but Love. Believe nothing against another but on good authority and never report what may hurt another, unless it be a greater hurt to some other to conceal it.
William Penn

William Penn
Choose thy clothes by thine own eyes, not another's.
William Penn
Love is indeed Heaven upon Earth since Heaven above would not be Heaven without it: For where there is not Love there is Fear: But perfect Love casts out Fear. And yet we naturally fear most to offend what we most Love.
William Penn
In the rush and noise of life, as you have intervals, step home within yourselves and be still. Wait upon God, and feel His good presence this will carry you evenly through your day's business.
William Penn
Some are so very studious of learning what was done by the ancients that they know not how to live with the moderns.
William Penn
A jealous man only sees his own spectrum when he looks upon other men, and gives his character in theirs.
William Penn
The adventure of the Christian life begins when we dare to do what we would never tackle without Christ.
William Penn
If it be an evil to judge rashly or untruly any single man, how much a greater sin it is to condemn a whole people.
William Penn
It would be far better to be of no church than to be bitter of any.
William Penn
We are too apt to love praise, but not to deserve it.
William Penn
In marriage do thou be wise: prefer the person before money, virtue before beauty, the mind before the body then thou hast a wife, a friend, a companion, a second self.
William Penn
Patience and Diligence, like faith, remove mountains.
William Penn
