Hebrew Letters

Famous quotes containing the words hebrew and/or letters:

    Sorrow is better than laughter: for by the sadness of the countenance the heart is made better. The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning: but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth.
    —Bible: Hebrew Ecclesiastes, 7:3-4.

    Letters are like wine; if they are sound they ripen with keeping. A man should lay down letters as he does a cellar of wine.
