--J.G. HOLLAND.

respects himself, or who comprehends the great end of life, would

set all the ribbons in Christendom to rustling. A single word from her
convulsed the whalebone market of the world.--J.G. HOLLAND.

Change of fashions is the tax which industry imposes on the vanity of
the rich.--CHAMFORT.

Their knavery and folly to excuse.

And thou shalt know ere long,--
Know how sublime a thing it is
To suffer and be strong.

Fear not the proud and the haughty; fear rather him who fears God.

virtuous from the love of virtue, from the obligation he thinks he
lies under to the Giver of all, there are ten thousand who are good
only from their apprehension of punishment.--GOLDSMITH.
The fear of God is freedom, joy, and peace;
And makes all ills that vex us here to cease.

The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?--PSALM 27:1.
