Quotes about Clergyman

The life of a conscientious clergyman is not easy. I have always considered a clergyman as the father of a larger family than he is able to maintain. I would rather have chancery suits upon my hands than the cure of souls.
- Samuel Johnson

- Herman Melville
A man who is good enough to go to heaven is good enough to be a clergyman.
- Samuel Johnson
