Quote of the Day

Henry Ward Beecher (1813-1887) was a well known minister and public intellectual in his day, admired for comments such as this:

"Greatness lies, not in being strong, but in
the right using of strength; and strength is
not used rightly when it serves only to carry
a man above his fellows for his own solitary
glory. He is the greatest whose strength
carries up the most hearts by the
attraction of his own."
