"Be not proud of race, face, place,..." - Quote by Charles Spurgeon

“We must meditate, brothers. These grapes will yield no wine we tread upon it.”

“Before you can teach children, you must get the silver key of kindness to unlock their hearts, and so secure their attention.”

“I glory in the distinguishing grace of God and will not, by the grace of God, step one inch from my principles or think of adhering to the present fashionable sort of religion.”

“Never praise your cider or your horse”

“He who boasts of being perfect is perfect in folly. I never saw a perfect man. Every rose has its thorns, and every day its night. Even the sun shows spots, and the skies are darkened with clouds; and faults of some kind nestle in every bosom.”

“We don't know a millionth of one percent about anything.”

“Were we not proud ourselves, we should not complain of the pride of others.”

“Always try to be modest, and be proud of it!”

“My pride had been starched by a family who assumed unlimited authority in its own affairs.”
