| Lyman Abbottb: Roxbury, Massachusetts., Dec 18, 1835 d: New York, New York., Oct 22, 1922 "Benauly"; "Laicus". American. Religious Leader, Editor. Editor, Illustrated Christian Weekly.
A child is a beam of sunlight from the Infinite and Eternal, with possibilities of virtue and vice – but as yet unstained.Do not teach your children never to be angry; teach them how to be angry and sin not. Every life is a march from innocence, through temptation, to virtue or vice. Every life is march from innocence, through temptation, to virtue or vice. I think of death as a glad awakening from this troubled sleep which we call life; as an emancipation from a world, which, beautiful though it may be, is still a land of captivity. In New York – whose subway trains in particular have been "tattooed" with an energy to put our own rude practitioners to shame – not an inch of free space is spared except that of advertisements. It is easy to condemn, it is better to pity. Patience is passion tamed. The brotherhood of man is an integral part of Christianity no less than the Fatherhood of God; and to deny the one is no less infidel than to deny the other. The earth is mankind's ultimate haven, our blessed terra firma. When it trembles and gives way beneath our feet, it's as though one of God's checks has bounced. The highest qualities of character … must be earned. We "need" cancer because, by the very fact of its insurability, it makes all other diseases, however virulent, not cancer. [The Trinity] is a corruption borrowed from the heathen religions, and ingrafted on the Christian faith. |
