Guard with jealous attention the
public liberty. Suspect everyone
who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately,
nothing will preserve it but downright
force: Whenever you give up that force,
you are inevitably ruined.
?Patrick Henry
Adversity is the diamond dust
heaven polishes its jewels with.
?Robert Leighton
The Lord says, "As surely as I live,
your children will be like jewels.
You will be as proud of them
as a bride is of her jewels."
?Isa 49:18
Words that enlighten the soul
are more precious than jewels.
?Hazrat Inayat Khan
Don't forget I know who you are.
We were cut from the same surly star.
Like two jewels in the sky sharing fire!
?Chauvelin
The more tranquil a man becomes, the greater
is his success, his influence, his power for
good. Calmness of mind is one of the
beautiful jewels of wisdom.
?James Allen
A good wife is heaven's last, best gift to man, -
his gem of many virtues, his casket of jewels; her voice is sweet
music, her smiles his brightest day, her kiss the guardian
of his innocence, her arms the pale of his safety...
?Jeremy Taylor
