Laugh at your friends, and if your friends are sore; so much the better, you may laugh the more (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)
Pride slays thanksgiving, but an humble mind is the soil out of which thanks naturally grow. A proud man is seldom a grateful man, for he never thinks he gets as much as he deserves (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)

The whole of the Saviour’s ministerial life, at least the part of it that stands on record, was passed in what we may call substantially a revival work (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)
Success is full of promise till men get it; and then it is last year’s nest from which the bird has flown (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)
That energy which makes a child hard to manage is the energy which afterward makes him a manager of life (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)
Rich men are to bear the infirmities of the poor. Wise men are to bear the mistakes of the ignorant (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)
Do not give, as many rich men do, like a hen that lays her egg and then cackles (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)
Liberty is the soul’s right to breath, and, when it can not take a long breath, laws are girdled too tight (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)
Poverty is very good in poems, but it is very bad in a house. It is very good in maxims and in sermons, but it is very bad in practical life (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)

Many would like religion as a sort of lightning rod to their houses, to ward off, by and by, the bolts of divine wrath (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)
Some men are like pyramids, which are very broad where they touch the ground, but grow narrow as they reach the sky (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)
Victories that are easy are cheap. Those only are worth having which come as the result of hard fighting (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)
There never was a person who did anything worth doing, who did not receive more than he gave (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)
When a man says that he is perfect already, there are only two places for him, and that is heaven or the lunatic asylum (Henry Ward Beecher Quotes)
