The best stock a man can invest in, is the stock of a farm; the best shares are plow shares; and the best banks are the fertile banks of a rural stream; the more these are broken the better dividends they pay (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)
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 Quotes)
All higher motives, ideals, conceptions, sentiments in a man are of no account if they do not come forward to strengthen him for the better discharge of the duties which devolve upon him in the ordinary affairs of life (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)
It is the very wantonness of folly for a man to search out the frets and burdens of his calling and give his mind every day to a consideration of them. They belong to human life. They are inevitable. Brooding only gives them strength (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)
Today is a goblet day. The whole heavens have been mingled with exquisite skill to a delicious flavor, and the crystal cup put to every lip. Breathing is like ethereal drinking. It is a luxury simply to exist (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)

The first merit of pictures is the effect they produce on the mind; and the first step of a sensible man should be to receive involuntary impressions from them. Pleasure and inspiration first; analysis, afterward (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)
That energy which makes a child hard to manage is the energy which afterwards makes him a manager of life (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)
Temptations are enemies outside the castle seeking entrance. If there be no false retainer within who holds treacherous parley, there can scarcely be even an offer (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)
It is part and parcel of every man’s life to develop beauty in himself. All perfect things have in them an element of beauty (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)
Intelligence increases mere physical ability one half. The use of the head abridges the labor of the hands (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)
