01UndatedTo educate the heart, one must be willing to go out of himself, and to come into loving contact with Others.James Freeman Clarke / quote ↗
02UndatedWe all shrink, like cowards, from new duties, new responsibilities. We do not venture to go out of the beaten track of our daily life. Close to us, on each side of the road, are those whom we might help or save with one good action, one kind word. But we are afraid. We say: "I am not prepared; I am not ready; I have not time; I am not qualified; find some better person; send some one else." Perhaps we have only one talent, and, therefore, instead of using it, we hide it, and when the Master comes we shall meet him with the old answer: "I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth. Lo! there thou hast that is thine."James Freeman Clarke / quote ↗
03UndatedThe difference between a politician and a statesman is that a politician thinks about the next election while the statesman think about the next generation.James Freeman Clarke / quote ↗
