There is nothing that makes us feel so good as the idea that someone else is an evil-doer

Most of us believe in trying to make other people happy only if they can be happy in ways which we approve.

Most of us can remember a time when a birthday - especially if it was one's own - brightened the world as if a second sun has risen.

Faith makes all evil good to us, and all good better; unbelief makes all good evil, and all evil worse. Faith laughs at the shaking of the spear; unbelief trembles at the shaking of a leaf.

Inspiring bold John Barleycorn! / What dangers thou canst make us scorn! / Wi' tippenny, we fear nae evil; / Wi' usquebae, we'll face the devil!

There is nothing that makes us feel so good as the idea that someone else is an evil-doer.
