Faith Is The Consolation Of The Wretched

Newton, Pascal, Bossuet, Racine, F?nelon -- That Is To Say, Some Of The Most Enlightened Men On Earth, In The Most Philosophical Of All Ages -- Have Been Believers In Jesus Christ; And The Great Cond?, When Dying, Repeated These Noble Words, "yes, I Shall See God As He Is, Face To Face!".

If Children Had Teachers For Judgment And Eloquence Just As They Have For Languages, If Their Memory Was Exercised Less Than Their Energy Or Their Natural Genius, If Instead Of Deadening Their Vivacity Of Mind We Tried To Elevate The Free Scope And Impulse Of Their Souls, What Might Not Result From A Fine Disposition? As It Is, We Forget That Courage, Or Love Of Truth And Glory Are The Virtues That Matter Most In Youth; And Our One Endeavour Is To Subdue Our Children's Spirits, In Order To Teach Them That Dependence And Suppleness Are The First Laws Of Success In Life.

The Tempests Of Youth Are Mingled With Days Of Brilliant Sunshine.

A Man Who Love Only Himself And His Pleasures Is Vain, Presumptuous, And Wicked Even From Principle.

It Is Good To Be Firm By Temperament And Pliant By Reflection.
