Not ashamed to be a follower of 'the world's greatest book! B. Let those who follow a LESSER book apologize! FAMOUS MEN AND WOMEN OF HISTORY COMMENT ON THE BIBLE! GEORGE WASHINGTON: “It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible.” QUEEN VICTORIA: “That book (the Bible) accounts for the supremacy of England.” ABRAHAM LINCOLN: “I believe the Bible is the best gift God has ever given to man; but for it, we could not know right from wrong.” JOHN QUINCY ADAMS: “So great is my veneration for the Bible, that the earlier my children read it, the more confident will be. my hope that they will prove useful citizens of their country and respectable members of society...l have for many years made it a practice to read through the Bible once every year...usually the first hour after I rise every morning.” WOODROW WILSON: He wrote a message about the power of the Bible to purify and guide in the front cover of the New Testament, which he presented to all the American troops in the First World War. NAPOLEON: “The Bible is no mere book, but a Living Creature, with a power that conquers all that oppose. it. The Gospel alone has exhibited a complete assemblage of the principles of morality divested of all absurdity...do you wish to see that which is sublime? Repeat the Lord's Prayer.” JOSEPH ADDISON: “What can be nobler than the idea it gives us of the Supreme Being?” BENJAMIN FRANKLIN: “A Bible and a newspaper in every house, a good school in every district—all studied and appreciated as they merit--are the principal support of virtue, morality and civil liberty.” EARL OF ROCHESTER: “The only objection against the Bible is a bad life.” (These were his last words). 3 | P a g e DANIEL WEBSTER: “The Bible is a book of faith, and a book of doctrine, and a book of morals, and a book of religion, of especial revelation from God. If there is anything in my thoughts or style to commend, the credit is due to my parents for instilling in me an early love of the Scriptures.” W. E. GLADSTONE: I have known ninety five of the world's great men in my time, and of these, eighty seven were followers of the Bible. HENRY WARD BEECHER: The Bible stands alone in human literature in its elevated conception of manhood, in character and conduct. The word of God tends to make large-minded, noble-minded men...God's chart to steer by, to keep you from the bottom of the sea, to show you where the harbour is, and how to reach it without running on the rocks. CHARLES DICKENS: The New Testament is the very best book that ever was or ever will be known in the world. LORD TENNYSON: Bible reading is an education in itself. COLERIDGE: Intense study of the Bible will keep any man from being vulgar in point of style. T. B. MACAULAY: The English Bible--a book which, if everything else in our language should perish, Would alone suffice to show the whole extent of its beauty and power. SIR WALTER SCOTT The most learned, acute and diligent student cannot, in the longest life, obtain an entire knowledge of this one volume. JOHN LOCKE: It has God for its author, salvation for its end, and truth without any mixture of error, for its matter: it is all pure, all sincere, nothing too much, nothing wanting. JOHN MILTON: There are no songs comparable to the songs of Zion, no orations equal to those of the prophets, and no politics like those which the Scriptures teach. SIR WILLIAM JONES: I have carefully and regularly perused the Holy Scriptures, and am of the opinion that the volume contains more sublimity, purer morality, more important history, and liner strains of eloquence, than can be collected from all other books, in whatever language they may have been written. 4 | P a g e THOMAS CARLYLE: The Bible is the truest utterance that ever came by alphabetical letters from the soul of man, through which, as through a window divinely opened, all men can look into the stillness of eternity, and discern in glimpses their far-distant, long-forgotten home. JOHANNE GOETHE: It is belief in the Bible, the fruits of deep meditation, which has served me as the guide of my moral and literary life. I have found capital safely invested and richly productive of interest, although I have sometimes made but a bad use of it. COLERIDGE: For more than a thousand years, the Bible, collectively taken, has gone hand in hand with civilization, science, and law; in short, with the moral and intellectual cultivation of the species, always supporting and often leading the way. JOHN LOCKE: In morality there are books enough written both by ancient and modern philosophers, but the morality of the Gospel doth so exceed them all that to give a man a full knowledge of true morality I shall send him to no other book than the New Testament. ALEXANDER POPE: The pure and noble, the graceful and dignified, simplicity of language is nowhere in such perfection as in the Scriptures and Homer. The whole book of Job, with regard both to sublimity of thought and morality, exceeds, beyond all comparison, the most noble parts of Homer. HORACE GREELEY: It is impossible to enslave mentally or socially a Bible-reading people. The principles of the Bible are the ground-work of human freedom. SIR ISAAC NEWTON: There are more sure marks of authenticity in the Bible than in any profane history. ROBEHT E. LEE: In all my perplexities and distresses, the Bible has never failed to give me light and strength. U. S. GRANT: The Bible is the sheet-anchor of our liberties. PATRICK HENRY: The Bible is worth all other books which have ever been printed. JOHN FOSTER DULLES: ...acknowledged his need for the Scriptures, and never left on a peace-making mission without seeking strength and guidance from the Bible. His favourite verse] “l can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me” (Phil. 4:13) 5 | P a g e SIR FRANCIS BACON: There never was found, in any age of the world, either religion or law that did so highly exalt the public good as the Bible. There are two books laid before us to study, to prevent our falling into error: first, the volume of the Scriptures, which reveal the will of God; then the volume of the Creatures, which express His power. HERSCHEL: All human discoveries seem to be made only for the purpose of confirming more strongly the truths that have come from on high, and are contained in the sacred writings. THOMAS HUXLEY: The Bible has been the Magna Carla of the poor and oppressed. The human race is not in a position to dispense with it. SIR WINSTON CHURCHILL: “We believe that the most scientific view, the most up-to-date and rational conception, will find its fullest satisfaction in taking the Bible story literally. We may be sure that all these things happened just as they are set out according to Holy Writ...and have been transmitted across the centuries with far more accuracy than many of the telegraphed accounts we read of goings on today. I remain unmoved by the tomes of ‘professor Gradgrind’ or ‘Dry-as-dust’. “ 6 | P a g e Lesson One ASSIGNMENT By every measurement known to the world of books, the Bible stands head and shoulders above every other book ever written.

In 1854 he commenced his education at Dickinson College, where his uncle Charles Collins was President.

  • Reading Guide Other Powers
    Reading Guide Other Powers By Barbara Goldsmith ISBN: 9780060953324 Plot Summary Other Powers: The Age of Suffrage, Spiritualism, and the Scandalous Victoria Woodhull is a portrait of the tumultuous last half of the nineteenth century, when the United States experienced the Civil War, Reconstruction, Andrew Johnson's impeachment trial, and the 1869 collapse of the gold market. A stunning combination of history and biography, Other Powers interweaves the stories of the important social, political, and religious players of America's Victorian era with the scandalous life of Victoria Woodhull--Spiritualist, woman's rights crusader, free-love advocate, stockbroker, prostitute, and presidential candidate. This is history at its most vivid, set amid the battle for woman suffrage, the Spiritualist movement that swept across the nation in the age of Radical Reconstruction following the Civil War, and the bitter fight that pitted black men against white women in the struggle for the right to vote. The book's cast: Victoria Woodhull, billed as a clairvoyant and magnetic healer--a devotee and priestess of those "other powers" that were gaining acceptance across America--in her father's traveling medicine show . spiritual and financial advisor to Commodore Vanderbilt . the first woman to address a joint session of Congress, where--backed by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony--she presents an argument that women, as citizens, should have the right to vote . becoming the "high priestess" of free love in America (fiercely believing the then-heretical idea that women should have complete sexual equality with men) . making a run for the presidency of the United States against Horace Greeley and Ulysses S.

  • Brainy Quote ~ Henry Ward Beecher 002
    Brainy Quote ~ Henry Ward Beecher 002 “Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures.” ~ Henry Ward Beecher 002 ~ Ok "Setiap seniman mencelupkan kuasnya ke jiwanya sendiri, dan melukiskan wataknya sendiri ke dalam gambarnya." ~ Henry Ward Beecher 002 ~ Ok Bagaimana Anda menselaraskan isi jiwa dan menuangkannya ke dalam bentuk yang kasat mata? Mampukah Anda dan saya seperti seorang pelukis yang dapat menunjukkan isi jiwanya lewat lukisan yang dihasilkannya. Melalui sebuah lukisan, kita dapat mengetahui perasaan dan isi hati seorang seniman pelukis. Ia tidak dapat dan tidak akan ‘membohongi’ kata hatinya bila kita mampu memperhatikan hal yang nyata lewat lukisannya. Saat melukis, seorang seniman akan mencelupkan kuasnya ke dalam jiwanya sendiri, kemudian menggoreskan kuasnya, sebagai isi watak ke kanvas gambar. Seperti yang pernah diutarakan Henry Ward Beecher, seorang pendeta dan aktivis berkebangsaan Amerika, hidup dalam rentang tahun 1813-1887 (73 tahun), lewat quote-nya, ‘Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures.’ Secara bebas diterjemahkan, ‘Setiap seniman mencelupkan kuasnya ke jiwanya sendiri, dan melukiskan wataknya sendiri ke dalam gambarnya.’ Kita tidak mesti menjadi seorang seniman untuk melakukan hal yang sama. Faktanya, setiap diri kita pun mampu mencelupkan ‘kuas’ ke dalam jiwa, kemudian menuangkannya ke bentuk tulisan atau tingkah laku. Dari sana, terlihat nyata bagaimana watak seseorang lewat tulisan maupun tingkah polahnya. Memang, ada saja orang yang mencoba mengelabui dirinya dengan mensamarkan isi jiwanya lewat perilakunya. Namun, hal tersebut tidak akan berlangsung lama. Pada akhirnya, ia akan kembali ke ‘wujud’ aslinya.

    JESSE MERANDY ©2009 1 To Whitman, Brooklyn was many things: it was home on three separate occasions, his workplace, and it was an endless source of inspiration for his creative work, particularly Leaves of Grass, which was richly infused with the sights and sounds he experienced during his time there. In his writing, Brooklyn became a powerful and versatile symbol representing the profound and rapid urban growth of the 19th century, a midpoint between the rural expanse of Long Island and the urban center of Manhattan, and a model of the democratic ideals he believed in. Brooklyn also stood as a shared space for Whitman, a common ground where he could root his experiences in order to provide readers with intimate access to his life. At the same time, he would project himself into the future, imagining a Brooklyn that only his readers would know, looking out through their eyes at his city. This tour aims to look deeply at this connection created through place, to our relationship with Whitman through landscapes and vistas, streets and scenes. We invite him to join us in looking back at the past and to walk side by side with us as we imagine what aspects of modern life he would add to his endless catalogues. Walking with Whitman: The Brooklyn Walking Tour starts at the High Street subway station in Brooklyn and takes you through the city Whitman once called his own: You will have the opportunity to traverse the historic streets of Brooklyn Heights and look out at Manhattan from the Fulton Pier.
