“...if we gained only one incontestable truth every ten years from each of our philosophical writers the harvest we reaped would be sufficient.”
“Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.”
“Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant.”
“The decisions we make and the way we behave are what ultimately shape our character. Charles A. Hall aptly described that process in these lines: "We sow our thoughts, and we reap our actions; we sow our actions, and we reap our habits; we sow our habits, and we reap our characters; we sow our characters, and we reap our destiny”
“The fields...are white already to harvest" (John 4:35 KJV), or as other versions put it, "ripe for harvest."...One part of the harvest metaphor we may have missed was the importance of timing-there is a season for both sowing and reaping, and sometimes there is a season of simply waiting and watering.”
“To reap a return in ten years, plant trees. To reap a return in 100, cultivate the people.”
