Appreciate the Quote
I appreciated the following quote by Thomas Chalmers, who I am presently fascinated with, on Kerry's Homeschool Blog, found via Google Blogsearch:
An excellent observation, in my humble opinion!
Perhaps the greatest gift any father can bestow upon his children, apart from the covenant blessings of parish life and a comprehension of the doctrines of grace, is a passion for reading. It is cheap, it consoles, it distracts, it excites, it gives a knowledge of the world, and it offers experience of a wide kind. Indeed, it is nothing less than a moral illumination.
Thomas Chalmers (1780-1847)
An excellent observation, in my humble opinion!
