Equivalent Strength

Famous quotes containing the words equivalent and/or strength:

    Nobody can deny but religion is a comfort to the distressed, a cordial to the sick, and sometimes a restraint on the wicked; therefore whoever would argue or laugh it out of the world without giving some equivalent for it ought to be treated as a common enemy.
    Mary Wortley, Lady Montagu (1689–1762)

    Consider first the nature of the business in hand; then examine thy own nature, whether thou hast strength to undertake it.
