The Influence of Night on the Student
John 3:1-2
There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:…


There is a reason why students prefer the night to the day for their labours. Through the day their thoughts are diverted into a thousand streams; but at night they settle into pools, which, deep and undisturbed, reflect the stars, But night labour, in time, will destroy the student; for it is marrow from his own bones with which he fills his lamp.

(H. W. Beecher.)
