Quote by Henry Ward Beecher (1813-1887)

• Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures.

• The art of being happy lies in the power of extracting happiness from common things.

• The unthankful heart... discovers no mercies; but let the thankful heart sweep through the day and, as the magnet finds the iron, so it will find, in every hour, some heavenly blessings!

• Young love is a flame; very pretty, often very hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. The love of the older and disciplined heart is as coals, deep burning, unquenchable.

• It is not the going out of port, but the coming in, that determines the success of a voyage.

• The philosophy of one century is the common sense of the next.
