Things unreal are foes to righteousness.
Activity is the best amen to any. prayer
Little sins open the doors to large
The currency of kindness is cash in any country.
The best way to win men to God is to be man.
Suspicion is the substitute of the slohfu for vigilance
It's no use calling people to happiness in sepulchra tone
An optmist is man who never stops to sandwich
Only destitute counts being rich the greatest virtue
There virtue e innocence that only fears the wrong
