Blasts From Ram's Horn: Misfortunes Are God's Call

1903

Misfortunes are God's call to new ministries.

The broad mind will not have the big head.

What we gain in form we may lose in force.

The indulgence of the flesh dwarfs the spirit.

The man who never begins never has to break off.

Stolen fruits are sweet only to a deranged appetite.

External forms of religion often mark its extinct fires.

To pander to the lower faculties is to paralyze the higher.

Some people are planning already to move for a change of administration when they get to heaven.
