Nathaniel Emmons
- More quotations on: [Character]
The good devout man first makes inner preparation for the actions he has later to perform. His outward actions do not draw him into lust and vice; rather it is he who bends them into the shape of reason and right judgement. Who has a stiffer battle to fight than the man who is striving to conquer himself.

Lewis Mumford (1895 - 1990)
Property left to a child may soon be lost; but the inheritance of virtue--a good name an unblemished reputation--will abide forever.

The largest property may be wrested from a child, but virtue will stand by him to the last.

I pray you bear me henceforth from the noise and rumour of the field, where I may think the remnant of my thoughts in peace, and part of this body and my soul with contemplation and devout desires.

William Shakespeare (1564 - 1616)
There is an art of which every man should be a master the art of reflection. If you are not a thinking man, to what purpose are you a man at all?
