Hospitality is threefold: for one's family, this of necessity; for strangers, this of courtesy; for the poor, this is charity.
Hospitality0One asking what was the best compost to manure land, it was answered, the dust of the master's feet.
Hard Work, Work Ethic, Work0Contentment consists not in adding more fuel but in taking away some fire—not in multiplying of wealth but in subtracting men's desires. Worldly riches, like nuts, tear many clothes in getting them; spoil many teeth in cracking them; but fill no belly with eating them, obstructing only the stomach with toughness and filling the guts with windiness. Yea, our souls may sooner surfeit than be satisfied with earthly things. He that at first thought ten thousand pounds too much for any one man will afterward think ten millions too little for himself.
Contentment0He that falls into sin is a man; that grieves at it is a saint; that boasts of it is a devil.
