"In giving, a man receives more than he gives, and the more is in proportion to the worth of the thing given."
"The whole trouble is that we won't let God help us."
"Friends, if we be honest with ourselves, we shall be honest with each other."
"God never gave man a thing to do concerning which it were irreverent to ponder how the Son of God would have done it."
Top 5 quotes from Truth & Lies
"One deceit needs many others, and so the whole house is built in the air and must soon come to the ground."
"Truth sits upon the lips of dying men."
"All malice has injustice at it's end, an end achieved by violence or by fraud; while both are sins that earn the hate of heaven, since fraud belongs exclusively to man, God hates it more and, therefore, far below, the fraudulent are placed and suffer most."
"Most truths are so naked that people feel sorry for them and cover them up, at least a little bit."
"I don't want any yes-men around me. I want everybody to tell me the truth even if it costs them their jobs."
