Henry Van Dyke
  • Some people are so afraid do die that they never begin to live.

  • What you possess in the world will be found at the day of your death to belong to someone else. But what you are will be yours forever.

  • Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who love, time is eternity.

  • A peace that depends on fear is nothing but a suppressed war.

  • There are two good rules which ought to be written on every heart - never to believe anything bad about anybody unless you positively know it to be true never to tell even that unless you feel that it is absolutely necessary, and that God is listening.
