Theodore L. Cuyler Book Quotations

A good book is the very essence of a good man. His virtues survive in it, while the foibles and faults of his actual life are forgotten. All the goodly company of the excellent and great sit around my table, or look down on me from yonder shelves, waiting patiently to answer my questions and enrich me with their wisdom. A precious book is a foretaste of immortality.

God does not give us ready money. He issues promissory notes, and then pays them at the throne. Each one of us has a check-book.
