to despair who remembers that his Helper is omnipotent.—Jeremy Taylor.

is
the conclusion of
fools.—Beaconsfield.
- He
that
despairs measures Providence
by his own little contracted model.—South.
- Despair
is
infidelity and death.—Whittier.
- Despair
makes a despicable figure,
and descends from a mean original. 'Tis the offspring of fear, of
laziness

oftentimes
of honesty too. I would not despair, unless I saw misfortune recorded
in
the book of fate, and signed and sealed by necessity.—Collier.
|

Christ brings His cross,
He brings His presence; and where He is, none are desolate, and there
is
no room for despair.—Mrs. Browning.

the
truly courageous man
who never desponds.—Confucius.

converts despair, which
destroys, into resignation, which submits.—Lady Blessington.
Dreadful
is their
doom, whom doubt has driven
To censure
fate, and
pious hope forego.
—Beattie.
