Points to Ponder on Feelings:
The last, best fruit which comes to late perfection – even in the kindliest soul – is – tenderness toward the hard – forbearance toward the un-forbearing – warmth of heart toward the cold – philanthropy toward the misanthropic — Richter
Some people carry their hearts in their heads; very many carry their heads in their hearts — the difficulty is to keep them apart and yet both actively working together — Sterne
A word – a look – which at one time would make no impression – at another time wounds the heart; and like a shaft flying with the wind, pierces deep, which, with its own natural force — would scarce have reached the object aimed at – Sterne
Every human feeling is greater and larger than its exciting cause – a proof I think – that man is designed for a higher state of existence — Coleridge
Feelings come and go – like light troops following victory of the present; but principles – like troops of the line are undisturbed and stand fast — Richter
The heart has often been compared to the needle of the compass for its constancy; has it ever been so for its variations? Yet, were any man to keep minutes of his feelings from youth to age, what a table of variations would they present — how numerous, how diverse, how strange ! – Hare
Feeling in the young precedes philosophy, and often acts with a better and more certain aim — Carleton
Sincerity is to speak as we think – to do as we pretend and profess – to perform what we promise – and really to be what we would seem and appear to be — Tilloston
