"A great deal of talent is lost to the world for want of a little courage. Every day sends to their graves obscure men, who have only remained in obscurity because their timidity has prevented them from making a first effort."
"If you find me short in things, impute that to my love of brevity. If you find me besides the truth in anything, impute that to my infirmity. But if you find anything here that serves to your furtherance and joy of the faith, impute that to the mercy of God bestowed on you and me."
