Those that think that wealth is the proper thing for them cannot give up their revenues; those that seek distinction cannot give up the thought of fame; those that cleave to power cannot give the handle of it to others. While they hold their grasp of those things, they are afraid of losing them. When they let them go, they are grieved and they will not look at a single example, from which they might perceive the folly of their restless pursuits such men are under the doom of heaven.

Other Charles Reade Quotes
Beauty is power; a smile is its sword. The absent are like children, helpless to defend themselves. Not a day passes over the earth, but men and women of no note do great deeds, speak great words and suffer noble sorrows. Sow a Thought, and you reap an Act; Sow an Act, and you reap a Habit; Sow a Habit, and you reap a Character; Sow a Character, and you reap a Destiny.
