The hoary head

Back to CHOICE QUOTES


"The hoary head is a crown of glory—if it is found
in the way of righteousness." Proverbs 16:31 

A white head, accompanied with a holy heart, 
makes a man truly honorable. 

There are two glorious sights in the world: the one 
is, a young man walking in his uprightness; and the 
other is, an old man walking in ways of righteousness. 

A hoary head, when coupled with an unsanctified heart,
is rather a curse than a blessing. When the head is as 
white as snow, and the soul as black as hell, God usually 
gives up such to the greatest scorn and contempt.
