ng is powerful in
his power, wise by his wisdom, happy by his happiness.--ADDISON.

The highest historical probability can be adduced in support of the
proposition that, if it were possible to annihilate the Bible, and
with it all its influences, we should destroy with it the whole
spiritual system of the moral world.--EDWARD EVERETT.

He had great faith in loaves of bread
For hungry people, young and old,
And hope inspired; kind words he said
To those he sheltered from the cold.
In words he did not put his trust;
His faith in words he never writ;
He loved to share his cup and crust
With all mankind who needed it.
He put his trust in Heaven and he
Worked well with hand and head;
And what he gave in charity
Sweetened his sleep and daily bread.

No cloud can overshadow a true Christian but his faith will discern a
rainbow in it.--BISHOP HORNE.

Faith in God, faith in man, faith in work: this is the short formula
in which we may sum up the teachings of the founders of New
England,--a creed ample enough for this life and the next.--LOWELL.

FAME.--None despise fame more heartily than those who have no possible
claim to it.--J. PETIT-SENN.

He who would acquire fame must not show himself afraid of censure. The
dread of censure is the death of genius.--SIMMS.

Though fame is smoke, its fumes are frankincense to human thoughts.
--BYRON.

He lives in fame that died in virtue's cause.--SHAKESPEARE.

Whatever may be the temporary applause of men, or the expressions of
public opinion, it may be asserted without fear of contradiction, that
no true and permanent fame can be founded, except in labors which
promote the happiness of mankind.--CHARLES SUMNER.

Fame usually comes to those who are thinking about something
else,--very rarely to those who say to themselves, "Go to, now let us
be a celebrated individual!"--HOLMES.

It is a very indiscreet and troublesome ambition which cares so much
about fame; about what the world says of us; to be always looking in
the faces of others for approval; to be always anxious about the
effect of what we do or say; to be always shouting, to hear the echoes
of our own voices.--LONGFELLOW.

The way to fame is like the way to heaven--through much tribulation.
--STERNE.

Nor fame I slight, nor for her favors call:
She comes unlook'd for, if she comes at all.
--POPE.
