| Bernard Barton | As I walk'd by myself, I talk'd to myself And myself replied to me; And the questions myself then put to myself, With their answers I give to thee. | | Edward Young | 'Tis greatly wise to talk with our past hours; And ask them what report they bore to heaven: And how they might have borne more welcome news. | | Isaac Watts | Let not soft slumber close your eyes, Before you've collected thrice The train of action through the day! Where have my feet chose out their way? What have I learnt, where'er I've been, From all I've heard, from all I've seen? What have I more that's worth the knowing? What have I done that's worth the doing? What have I sought that I should shun? What duty have I left undone, Or into what new follies run? These self-inquiries are the road That lead to virtue and to God. | | Israel Zangwill | Selfishness is the only real atheism; aspiration, unselfishness, the only real religion. | | Israel Zangwill | You should examine yourself daily. If you find faults, you should correct them. When you find none, you should try even harder. | | George Herbert | Summe up at night what thou hast done by day, And in the morning what thou hast to do. Dresse and undresse thy soul, mark the decay And growth of it, if, with thy watch, that too Be down then winde up both, since we shall be Most surely judg'd, make thy accounts agree. | | Lord Alfred Tennyson | Love took up the harp of Life, and smote on all the chords with might, Smote the chord of Self, that, trembling, pass'd in music out of sight. | | William Wordsworth | There is a luxury in self-dispraise, And inward self-disparagement affords To meditative spleen a grateful feast. | | William Shakespeare | O Hamlet, speak no more. Thou turn'st mine eyes into my very soul, And there I see such black and grained spots As will not leave their tinct. | | William Shakespeare | Because authority, though it err like others, Hath yet a kind of medicine in itself That skins the vice o' th' top, go to your bosom, Knock there, and ask your heart what it doth know That's like my brother's fault, if it confess A natural guiltiness such as is his, Let it not sound a thought upon your tongue Against my brother's life. | | - Page 1 Next | |
