Benjamin Whichcote Good Quotations

Some things must be good in themselves, else there could be no measure whereby to lay out good and evil.

None are known to be good, till they have opportunity to be bad.

A good word costs as little as a bad one, and is worth more.

Good men study to spiritualize their bodies; bad men to incarnate their souls.

A good man's life is all of a piece.

Nothing spoils human nature more than false zeal. The good nature of a heathen is more God-like than the furious zeal of a Christian.
