We are twice armed if we fight with faith.

---

In actual life every great enterprise begins with and takes its first forward step in faith.

---

It is always right that a man should be able to render a reason for the faith that is within him.

---

We must have infinite faith in each other. If we have not, we must never let it leak out that we have not.

---

Talk unbelief, and you will have unbelief; but talk faith, and you will have faith. According to the seed sown will be the harvest.

---

Every tomorrow has two handles. We can take hold of it by the handle of anxiety, or by the handle of faith.

Fame - a few words upon a tombstone, and the truth of those not to be depended on.

If a man knows the law, find out, though he live in a pine shanty, and resort to him. And if a man can pipe or sing, so as to wrap the imprisoned soul in an elysium; or can paint a landscape, and convey into souls and ochres all the enchantments of Spring or Autumn; or can liberate and intoxicate all people who hear him with delicious songs and verses; it is certain that the secret cannot be kept; the first witness tells it to a second, and men go by fives and tens and fifties to his doors.

---

Of all the possessions of this life fame is the noblest; when the body has sunk into the dust the great name still lives.
