On Life:
A bachelor’s life is a fine breakfast, a flat lunch, and a miserable dinner.
The great end of life is not knowledge but action.
The momentous thing in human life is the art of winning the soul to good or evil.
On Death:
Death is a friend of ours and he that is not ready to entertain him is not at home.
On Knowledge:
Knowledge is power.
Knowledge is a rich storehouse, for the glory of the Creator and the relief of man’s estate.
On God:
God has placed no limits to the exercise of the intellect he has given us, on this side of the grave.
