A Quote by John Henry Newman

Time hath a taming hand. — © John Henry Newman
Time hath a taming hand.
The swifter hand doth the swift words outrun: Before the tongue hath spoke the hand hath done.
When you find the person that you settle down with, I guess you mellow. They are taming you, aren't they? Or you're taming them.
Happiness comes through taming the mind; without taming the mind there is no way to be happy
The hand that hath made you fair hath made you good. Pity is the virtue of the law, and none but tyrants use it cruelly.
He that hath a trade hath an estate; and he that hath a calling hath a place of profit and honor. A ploughman on his legs is higher than a gentleman on his knees.
The hand that hath made you fair hath made you good.
What Time hath scanted men in hair, he hath given them in wit.
The eye of man hath not heard, the ear of man hath not seen, man's hand is not able to taste, his tongue to conceive, nor his heart to report, what my dream was.
His golden locks Time hath to silver turned, O time too swift! O swiftness never ceasing! His youth 'gainst Time and Age hath ever spurned, But spurned in vain! Youth waneth by increasing.
True love is but a humble, low born thing, And hath its food served up in earthenware; It is a thing to walk with, hand in hand, Through the every-dayness of this workday world.
Be not as one that hath ten thousand years to live; death is nigh at hand: while thou livest, while thou hast time, be good.
I tell you again, God hath not ordinarily decreed the end without the means; and if you will neglect the means of salvation, it is a certain mark that God hath not decreed you to salvation. But you shall find that He hath left you no excuse, because He hath not thus predestined you.
O, grief hath changed me since you saw me last, And careful hours with Time's deformed hand Have written strange defeatures in my face. But tell me yet, dost thou not know my voice?
That which hath made them drunk hath made me bold; What hath quenched them hath given me fire.
The hand of little employment hath the daintier sense.
It is good walking when one hath his horse in hand.
