Quotations for discourses

Pleasant discourses make short day and night. [ Proverb ]

Beauty or unbecomingness is of more force to draw or deter invitation than any discourses which can be made to them. [ Locke ]

Flowers of rhetoric, in sermons or serious discourses, are like the red and blue flowers in corn; pleasing to those who come only for amusement, but prejudicial to him who would reap the profit. [ Swift ]
