No coffee can be good in the ...

No coffee can be good in the mouth that does not first send a sweet offering of odor to the nostrils.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

Any man can work when every s...

Any man can work when every stroke of his hands brings down the fruit rattling from the tree ... but to labor in season and out of season, under every discouragement... that requires a heroism which is transcendent.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

A man without self-restraint ...

A man without self-restraint is like a barrel without hoops, and tumbles to pieces.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

When a man sells eleven ounce...

When a man sells eleven ounces for twelve, he makes a compact with the devil, and sells himself for the value of an ounce.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

It is not when the cable lies...

It is not when the cable lies coiled up on the deck that you know how strong or how weak it is; it is when it is put to the test.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

Intelligence increases mere p...

Intelligence increases mere physical ability one half. The use of the head abridges the labor of the hands.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

There is no man that lives wh...

There is no man that lives who does not need to be drilled, disciplined, and developed into something higher and nobler and better than he is by nature. Life is one prolonged birth.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

Do not give, as many rich men...

Do not give, as many rich men do, like a hen that lays her eggs ...and then cackles.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

Men strengthen each other in ...

Men strengthen each other in their faults. Those who are alike associate together, repeat the things which all believe, defend and stimulate their common faults of disposition, and each one receives from the others a reflection of his own egotism.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

To do good work a man should ...

To do good work a man should no doubt be industrious. To do great work he must certainly be idle a well.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

The best lessons a man ever l...

The best lessons a man ever learns are from his mistakes. It is not for want of schoolmasters that we are still ignorant.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

The little troubles and worri...

The little troubles and worries of life may be as stumbling blocks in our way, or we may make them stepping-stones to a nobler character and to Heaven. Troubles are often the tools by which God fashions us for better things.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

We pray for those who have ce...

We pray for those who have ceased to pray. We pray for those that need prayer more than ever, that have fewer and fewer seasons even of thought, that grow hard with years, that are less and less troubled by sin, and that are more and more irreverent of religion. We pray for the children of Christian parents who sometimes weep at the memory of father and mother, but who never have thought of God.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

A man's character is the real...

A man's character is the reality of himself; his reputation, the opinion others have formed about him; character resides in him, reputation in other people; that is the substance, this is the shadow.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

Sorrow makes men sincere. ...

Sorrow makes men sincere.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

It is for men to choose whether they will govern themselves or be governed.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

God has made sleep to be a sp...

God has made sleep to be a sponge by which to rub out fatigue. A man's roots are planted in night as in a soil.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

When a man says that he is pe...

When a man says that he is perfect already, there is only one of two places for him, and that is heaven or the lunatic asylum.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

What if the leaves were to fa...

What if the leaves were to fall a-weeping, and say, "It will be so painful for us to be pulled from our stalks, when autumn comes?" Foolish fear! Summer goes, and autumn succeeds. The glory of death is upon the leaves; and the gentlest breeze that blows takes them softly and silently from the bough, and they float slowly down, like fiery sparks, upon the moss.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

We go to the grave of a friend saying,
"A man is dead,"
but angels throng about him saying,
"A man is born."
