Henry S. Haskins

“Many a man gets weary of clamping down on his rough impulses, which if given occasional release would encourage the living of life with salt in it, in place of dust.”

“Some people are like wheelbarrows; useful only when pushed, and very easily upset. The time to stop talking is when the other person nods his head affirmatively but says nothing.”

“We have to serve ourself many years before we gain our own confidence.”

“When a thing is not worth overdoing, leave it alone!”

“Good behavior is the last refuge of mediocrity.”

“Treat the other man's faith gently: it is all he has to believe with.”

“Each experience through which we pass operates ultimately for our good. This is a correct attitude to adopt and we must be able to see it in that light.”
