Diligence, Principle, and Christian Character Quotations

—Do not be in a hurry, but be diligent.—Macdonald.

—“So act that your principle of action would bear to be made a law for the world.”

—The best advertisement of a work-shop is first-class work. The strongest attraction to Christianity is a well made Christian character.

—Searching the Scriptures “is like a person shaking a fruit tree,—first shaking the tree and gathering up the fruit that falls to the ground, and then shaking each branch, and afterward each twig of the branch, and last of all looking carefully under each limb to see that no fruit remains. In this way and in no other shall we find the hidden treasures that are in the Bible.”—Luther.
