Love is ownership. We own whom we love. The universe is God's because He loves.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

Astronomers have built telesc...

Astronomers have built telescopes which can show myriads of stars unseen before; but when a man looks through a tear in his own eye, that is a lens which opens reaches into the unknown, and reveals orbs which no telescope, however skilfully constructed, could do.

There never was a liar that had not a spot in him where he could not help admiring truth.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

Why is not a rat as good as a...

Why is not a rat as good as a rabbit? Why should men eat shrimps and neglect cockroaches?

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

Weak minds may be injured by ...

Weak minds may be injured by novel-reading; but sensible people find both amusement and instruction therein.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

Evil men of every degree will...

Evil men of every degree will use you, flatter you, lead you on until you are useless; then, if the virtuous do not pity you, or God compassionate, you are without a friend in the universe.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

Any law that takes hold of a ...

Any law that takes hold of a mans daily life cannot prevail in a community, unless the vast majority of the community are actively in favor of it. The laws that are the most operative are the laws which protect life.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

A door that seems to stand open must be of a man's size, or it is not the door that providence means for him.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

We rejoice in God since he ha...

We rejoice in God since he has taught us that every thing which is true in us, is but a faint expression of what is in him. And thus all our joys become to us the echo of higher joys, and our very life is as a dream of that nobler life, to which we shall awaken when we die.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

None love to speak so much, w...

None love to speak so much, when the mood of speaking comes, as they who are naturally taciturn.

Liberty is the soul's right to breathe.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

Our earthly loves are but so ...

Our earthly loves are but so many silver steps leading us up to the great golden love of God.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

When flowers are full of heav...

When flowers are full of heaven-descended dews, they always hang their heads; but men hold theirs the higher the more they receive, getting proud as they get full.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

Indeed, unless a man can link...

Indeed, unless a man can link his written thoughts with the everlasting wants of men, so that they shall draw more from them as wells, there is no more immortality to the thoughts and feelings of the soul than to the muscles and bones.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

Thinking is creating with God...

Thinking is creating with God, as thinking is writing with the ready writer; and worlds are only leaves turned over in the process of composition, about his throne.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

There is not on earth so base...

There is not on earth so base a knave as the man who wins the love of a woman when he knows that he cannot or ought not to requite it.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

A library is but the soul's burying ground. It is a land of shadows.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

A lie is a very short wick in...

A lie is a very short wick in a very small lamp. The oil of reputation is very soon sucked up and gone. And just as soon as a man is known to lie, he is like a two-foot pump in a hundred-foot well. He cannot touch bottom at all.

Henry Ward Beecher 1108 quotes

A lie always needs a truth fo...

A lie always needs a truth for a handle to it. The worst lies are those whose blade is false, but whose handle is true.

We may cover a multitude of sins with the white robe of charity.
