Quote by Hannah More (1745-1833)

• Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off the goal.

• One kernel is felt in a hogshead; one drop of water helps to swell the ocean; a spark of fire help to give light to the world. None are too small, too feeble, too poor to be of service. Think of this and act.

• Genius without religion is only a lamp on the outer gate of a palace; it may serve to cast a gleam on those that are without while the inhabitant sits in darkness.

• Going to the opera, like getting drunk, is a sin that carries its own punishment with it.

• It is not so important to know everything as to know the exact value of everything, to appreciate what we learn, and to arrange what we know.
