Concentration
Psalm 27:4
One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life…


An anonymous writer has left us a very discriminating comparison of two great British statesmen. He likens Canning's mind to a convex speculum, which scattered its rays of light upon all objects; while he likens Brougham's to a concave speculum, which concentrated the rays upon one central, burning, focal point.

(A. T. Pierson, D. D.)
