Henry Ward Beecher

"We sleep, but the loom of life never stops, and the pattern which was weaving when the sun went down is weaving when it comes up in the morning."

"Love cannot endure indifference. It needs to be wanted. Like a lamp, it needs to be fed out of the oil of another's heart, or its flame burns low."

"Where is human nature so weak as in the bookstore?"

"The soul without imagination is what an observatory would be without a telescope."

"Now comes the mystery! (last words)"

"Tears are often the telescope by which men see far into heaven."

"Every tomorrow has two handles. We can take hold of it with the handle of anxiety or the handle of faith."
