Moderation is the silken string running through the pearl chain of all virtues.

More quotes by Joseph Hall

It is not sin that kills the soul, but impenitence.

There is many a rich stone laid up in the bowels of the earth, many a fair pearl laid up in the bosom of the sea, that never was seen, nor never shall be.

The proud man hath no God; the envious man hath no neighbor; the angry man hath not himself.

He is wealthy enough, that wanteth not: he is great enough, that is his own master: he is happy enough, that lives to die well.

He that taketh his own cares upon himself loads himself in vain with an uneasy burden. I will cast all my cares on God; He hath bidden me; they cannot burden Him.
