Zeal Without Humanity Is Like

Irresolution Is A Worse Vice Than Rashness. He That Shoots Best May Sometimes Miss The Mark; But He That Shoots Not At All Can Never Hit It. Irresolution Loosens All The Joints Of A State; Like An Ague, It Shakes Not This Nor That Limb, But All The Body Is At Once In A Fit. The Irresolute Man Is Lifted From One Place To Another; So Hatcheth Nothing, But Addles All His Actions.

To Trust God When We Have Securities In Our Iron Chest Is Easy, But Not Thankworthy; But To Depend On Him For What We Cannot See, As It Is More Hard For Man To Do, So It Is More Acceptable To God.

He That Always Waits Upon God Is Ready Whenever He Calls. Neglect Not To Set Your Accounts Even; He Is A Happy Man Who To Lives As That Death At All Times May Find Him At Leisure To Die.

There Is No Detraction Worse Than To Overpraise A Man, For If His Worth Proves Short Of What Report Doth Speak Of Him, His Own Actions Are Ever Giving The Lie To His Honor.

The Greatest Results In Life Are Usually Attained By Simple Means And The Exercise Of Ordinary Qualities. These May For The Most Part Be Summed Up In These Two - Common Sense And Perseverance.
