“A life without purpose is a languid, drifting thing; . . . Every day we ought to renew our purpose, saying to ourselves: This day let us make a sound beginning, for what we have hitherto done is naught; - Our improvement is in proportion to our purpose; - We hardly ever manage to get completely rid of one fault, and do not set our hearts on
daily improvement; - Always place a definite purpose before thee; get the habit of mastering thine inclination.”
“The great clock at Westminster booms out its chimes to the tune of
‘Lord, thro’ this hour
Be Thou my Guide,
So by Thy power
No foot shall slide.’”
Archdeacon FARRAR
“Do as well as you can to-day, and perhaps to-morrow you may be able to do better.”
NEWTON
