William Ellery Channing - From the Books category:
It is chiefly through books that we enjoy intercourse with the superior minds, and these invaluable means of communication are in reach of all. In the best books, great men talk to us, give us their most precious thoughts, and pour their souls into ours. God be thanked for books. They are the voices of the distant and the dead, and make us heirs of the spiritual life of past ages. Books are true levellers. They give to all, who faithfully use them, the society, the spiritual presence of the best and greatest of our race. (William Ellery Channing)
William Ellery Channing - From the Guilt category:
No punishment is so terrible as prosperous guilt. (William Ellery Channing)
