Reputation of Being an Interesting Speaker—Put into your work all the enthusiasm that you can. Let your discourses be short. There are two reasons why you should do this. One is that you may gain the reputation of being an interesting speaker. Another is that you may preserve your health.—Letter 112, 1902. {Ev 177.3}

Ry for at være en interessant taler. - Læg al den entusiasme du kan, i dit arbejde. Lad dine prædikener være korte. Der er to grunde til dette: En er at du kan få ry for at være en interessant taler. En anden (178) at du bevarer et godt helbred. - Brev 112, 1902.
