Halaman 33 - True it is, that the kingdom of God must be the first thing in our purposes and desires. But inasmuch as righteous life presupposeth life ; inasmuch as to live virtuously it is impossible except we live; therefore the first impediment, which naturally we endeavour to remove, is penury and want of things without which we cannot live.
Halaman 10 - The deception, as practised upon human creatures, is curious and entertaining. My friend sups late ; he eats some strong soup, then a lobster, then some tart, and he dilutes these esculent varieties with wine. The next day I call upon him. He is going to sell his house in London, and to retire into the country.
Halaman 10 - ... health. His expenses are hourly increasing, and nothing but a timely retreat can save him from ruin. All this is the lobster : and when over-excited nature has had time to manage this testaceous encumbrance, the daughter recovers, the finances are in good order, and every rural idea effectually excluded from the mind.
Halaman 44 - ... like the boom of an Atlantic tide, ten-thousand times ten-thousand spools and spindles all set humming there/ — it is perhaps, if thou knew it well, sublime as a Niagara, or more so. Cottonspinning is the clothing of the naked in its result ; the triumph of man over matter in its means. Soot and despair are not the essence of it; they are divisible from it, — at this hour, are they not crying fiercely to be divided? The great Goethe, looking at cotton Switzerland, declared it, I am told,...
Halaman 51 - Money, which represents the prose of life, and which is hardly spoken of in parlors without an apology, is, in its effects and laws, as beautiful as roses.
Halaman 10 - ... rules are the best : — exercise without fatigue ; generous living without excess ; early rising, and moderation in sleeping. These are the apothegms of old women; but if they are not attended to, happiness becomes so extremely difficult that very few persons can attain to it. In this point of view, the care of the body becomes a subject of elevation and importance. A walk in the fields, an hour's less sleep, may remove all those bodily vexations and disquietudes which are such formidable enemies...
Halaman 26 - ... efforts to benefit them by medical treatment are often greatly impeded, and sometimes entirely frustrated, by their ignorance and their neglect of the conditions upon which health necessarily depends. We are therefore of opinion, that it would greatly tend to prevent sickness and to promote soundness of body and mind were the Elements of Physiology, in its application to the preservation of health, made a part of general education...
Halaman 47 - ... provide for, is, a generous and animating diet. The physical causes must go along with the moral; and nature herself forbids, that you shall make a wise and virtuous people, out of a starving one/ Men must be happy themselves, before they can rejoice in the happiness of others; they must have a certain vigour of mind, before they can, in the midst of habitual suffering, resist a presented pleasure; their own lives, and means of well-being, must be worth something, before they can value, so as...
Halaman 47 - ... their own lives, and means of well-being, must be worth something, before they can value, so as to respect, the life, or wellbeing, of any other person. ]This or that individual may be an extraordinary individual] and exhibit mental excellence in the midst of wretchedness; but a wretched and excellent people never yet has been seen on the face of the earth.
Halaman 6 - ... physical, the vegetative, the animal, the intellectual, the moral, the spiritual, and the amazing union of all these categories in one harmonious code. Temperance is the very angel of health ; and health is literally nothing but another name for the wholeness of the stuff and manner of our existence.
