--TERENCE.

Girded for service, seeking not its own;
Vaunts not itself, but speaks in self-dispraise.
--ABRAHAM COLES.
Love without faith is as bad as faith without love.--BEECHER.

MAN.--Man is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of
the man.--1 COR. 11:7.
Do you know what a man is? Are not birth, beauty, good shape,
discourse, manhood, learning, gentleness, virtue, youth, liberality,
and such like, the spice and salt that season a man?--SHAKESPEARE.
A man may twist as he pleases, and do what he pleases, but he
inevitably comes back to the track to which nature has destined
him.--GOETHE.
Men may rise on stepping-stones of their dead selves to higher things.
--TENNYSON.

He belongs to his wife, or his children, or his relations, or to his
creditors, or to society in some form or other.--G.A. SALA.
The record of life runs thus: Man creeps into childhood,--bounds into
youth,--sobers into manhood,--softens into age,--totters into second
childhood, and slumbers into the cradle prepared for him,--thence to
be watched and cared for.
