Henry Ward Beecher najznámejšie citáty

„Je to jedna z najťažších skúšok priateľstva, keď svojmu priateľovi poviete o jeho chybách. Milovať človeka tak, že neznesieš, keď na ňom vidíš škvrnu, a hovoriť bolestnú pravdu láskyplnými slovami, to je priateľstvo.“

Henry Ward Beecher

„Ľudí by sme nemali posudzovať podľa toho, ako sa im darí, ale podľa toho, ako ďaleko zašli od bodu, kde začali.“

Henry Ward Beecher

„Smútok robí ľudí úprimnými.“

Henry Ward Beecher

„Rozdiel medzi vytrvalosťou a tvrdohlavosťou je, že jedno pochádza zo silnej vôle a druhé zo silného nechcenia.“

Henry Ward Beecher Citáty o ľuďoch

„Niektorí ľudia sú ako pyramídy, ktoré sú veľmi široké tam, kde sa dotýkajú zeme, ale zúžia sa, keď sa dotýkajú oblohy.“

Henry Ward Beecher Citáty na tému srdce

„Dosť vysoko na to, aby som vás mohol udrieť - na otázku lekára, ako vysoko môže zdvihnúť ruku, 1887 - Nič na zemi sa nevie vedome usmievať, len človek. Nádherný lesk drahokamov odráža svetlo, ale čo je to v porovnaní s očami žiariacimi radosťou a veselou mysľou? Úsmev je ako svetlo v okne našej tváre, ktorým srdce dáva najavo, že niekto je doma a čaká nás.“

Henry Ward Beecher

„Matkino srdce je učebňou dieťaťa.“

Henry Ward Beecher

„Nikto nemôže povedať, či je bohatý alebo chudobný tým, že sa pozrie do svojej hlavnej účtovnej knihy. Bohatým robí človeka srdce. Je bohatý alebo chudobný podľa toho, čím je, nie podľa toho, čo má.“

Henry Ward Beecher citáty a výroky

„Cynik je ten, kto nikdy nevidí dobrú vlastnosť v človeku a nikdy neopomenie vidieť zlú. Je to ľudská sova, bdelá v tme a slepá na svetlo, ktorá ňuchá po drobnej hávedi a nikdy nevidí veľkú zverinu.“

Henry Ward Beecher

„Porážka je škola, v ktorej pravda vždy zosilnie.“

Henry Ward Beecher

„Ak nejaký človek nemôže byť kresťanom na tom mieste kde je, nemôže byť kresťanom nikde.“

Henry Ward Beecher

„Božia prozreteľnosť je na strane jasných hláv.“

Henry Ward Beecher

„Nástroj je iba predĺžením ľudskej ruky a stroj je iba zložitý nástroj. A ten, kto vynájde nejaký stroj, zväčšuje moc človeka a blahobyt ľudstva.“

Henry Ward Beecher

„Pyšný človek je zriedka vďačný, pretože si nikdy nemyslí, že dostáva toľko, koľko si zaslúži.“

“For four thousand years the strong had been rushing on in the road of privilege and power, seeking greatness. Christ stood in the path, and said, " Ye seek greatness. Ye are not even in the way to it. Ye are going up, but the way to greatness is down. Let him who would be great be the love-servant of all." Greatness consists in the facility and power of going down, and not in the facility of going up.”

“The common schools are the stomachs of the country in which all people that come to us are assimilated within a generation. When a lion eats an ox, the lion does not become an ox but the ox becomes a lion. So the immigrants of all races and nations become Americans, and it is a disgrace to our institutions and a shame to our policy to abuse them or drive them away.”
