“ Never read a book through merely because you have begun it. ”
Men are not generally sufficiently aware of the distinction between the law of God and his purpose; they are apt to suppose, that as the temper of the sinner is contrary to the one, so the outrages of the sinner are able to defeat the other; than which nothing can be more false.
~ John Witherspoon
It is only the fear of God that can deliver us from the fear of men.
Those who wish well to the State ought to choose to places of trust men of inward principle, justified by exemplary conversation.
