Bearing Strength Tarmac

Famous quotes containing the words bearing and/or strength:

    If an opinion can eventually go to the determination of a practical belief, it, in so far, becomes itself a practical belief; and every proposition that is not pure metaphysical jargon and chatter must have some possible bearing upon practice.
    Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)

    Why, therefore, should we do ourselves this wrong,
    Or others—that we are not always strong—
    That we are sometimes overborne with care—
    That we should ever weak or heartless be,
    Anxious or troubled—when with us is prayer,
    And joy and strength and courage are with Thee?
    Richard Chenevix Trench (1807–1886)
