—Richard Bernard
Build your nest upon no tree here; for you see God has sold the forest to death.
—Samuel Rutherford
Let us use worldly things as wise pilgrims do their staves and other necessaries convenient for their journey.

But if they become troublesome hindrances and cumbersome burdens, let us leave them behind us, or cast them away.
—George Downame |
