What must of necessity be done, you can always find out how to do.
--_Ruskin._
He fails not who makes truth his cause, Nor bends to win the crowd's applause, He fails not--he who stakes his all Upon the right and dares to fall.
--_Richard Watson Gilder._
Trust no Future, howe'er pleasant!
Let the dead Past bury its dead!
Act,--act in the living Present!
Heart within and G.o.d o'erhead!
--_Longfellow._
Tell me not in mournful numbers, Life is but an empty dream!
For the soul is dead that slumbers, And things are not what they seem.
--_Longfellow._
Be just and fear not; let all the ends thou aimest at, be thy country's, thy G.o.d's, and truth's.
--_Shakespeare._
For of all sad words of tongue or pen-- The saddest are these: "It might have been!"
--_Whittier._
Truth crushed to earth shall rise again; The eternal years of G.o.d are hers; But error, wounded, writhes with pain, And dies among his wors.h.i.+ppers.
--_Bryant._
Flower in the crannied wall, I pluck you out of the crannies;-- Hold you here, root and all, in my hand, Little flower,--but if I could understand What you are, root and all--and all in all, I should know what G.o.d and man is.
--_Tennyson._
Life is the beat possible thing we can make of it.
--_Curtis._
Without a sign his sword the brave man draws, And asks no omen but his country's cause.
--_Pope._
There's a divinity that shapes our ends, Rough-hew them how we will.
--_Shakespeare._
To be, or not to be: that is the question: Whether 'tis n.o.bler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, Or to take up arms against a sea of troubles, And by opposing, end them?
--_Shakespeare._
Whatever makes men good Christians, makes them good citizens.
--_Webster._
Our grand business is, not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what lies clearly at hand.
--_Thomas Carlyle._
With malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as G.o.d gives us to see the right.
--_Lincoln._
Full many a gem of purest ray serene The dark, unfathomed caves of ocean bear; Full many a flower is born to blush unseen, And waste its sweetness on the desert air.
--_Gray._
POOR RICHARD'S SAYINGS.
G.o.d helps them that help themselves.
The sleeping fox catches no poultry.
What we call time enough always proves little enough.
Sloth makes all things difficult, but industry all easy.
Drive thy business, let not that drive thee.
