John Lancaster Spalding Littles Quotations

If we are disappointed that men give little heed to what we utter is it for their sake or our own?

Where it is the chief aim to teach many things, little education is given or received.

Nothing requires so little mental effort as to narrate or follow a story. Hence everybody tells stories and the readers of stories outnumber all others.

We shrink from the contemplation of our dead bodies, forgetting that when dead they are no longer ours, and concern us as little as the hairs that have fallen from our heads.

There are few things it is more important to learn than how to live on little and be therewith content: for the less we need what is without, the more leisure have we to live within.

Whom little things occupy and keep busy, are little men.
