A drunkard is a public enemy.
A Word to a Drunkard
You are an enemy to yourself, you throw away your own blessing, if you neglect to keep the Sabbath day holy.
A Word to a Sabbath Breaker
Distilled liquors have their use, but are infinitely overbalanced by the abuse of them,; therefore, were it in my power, I would banish them out of the world.
to Thomas Wride, 1787
God can do His work by pleasure as well as by pain.
Letter, 1st April, 1784
