Great Gain

"As a writer, Brooks scatters stars with both his hands: he hath dust of gold; in his storehouse are all manner of precious stones.... One of these pithy extracts may assist our meditations for a whole day, and may open up some sweet passage of Scripture to our understandings; and perhaps some brief sentence may stick in the sinner's conscience, like an arrow from the bow of God."
-C. H. Spurgeon.
