Keeping the fire of faith burning!

4 notes

The first evil of scolding is that it does no good, and is, therefore, a waste of time and strength; the second evil is that it does harm by irritating the conscience; the third, that it does harm by hardening the conscience.
In order that the truth shall do any good, it must be spoken in reason and love
James Freeman Clarke, Messages of Hope, Faith & Love (1905) Geo. E. Ellis, p.217 (Unitarian, minister, reformer)
