It is the folly of the world, constantly, which confounds its wisdom. Not only out of the mouths of babes and sucklings, but out of the mouths of fools and cheats, we may often get our truest lessons.
She herself died at forty-two; and her brother, Captain Maurice Suckling, of the Royal Navy, was also cut off in the prime of his age. As the earlier Nelsons were unusually long-lived, it seems probable that a certain delicacy of constitution was transmitted through the Sucklings to the generation to which the admiral belonged.
Only spirit abides. All else, being mere matter, passes, and must pass. Oh, I do see myself to-day that one man who appeared in the elder world, blonde, ferocious, a killer and a lover, a meat-eater and a root-digger, a gypsy and a robber, who, club in hand, through millenniums of years wandered the world around seeking meat to devour and sheltered nests for his younglings and sucklings.
"Then," I answer, "there can be no principle, only an occasional and arbitrary exercise of spiritual power, in the perfecting of praise out of the mouth of babes and sucklings, or in the preference of them to the wise and prudent as the recipients of divine revelation." Dawtie never said much, but tried the more.

"You know your ma said I was to smack " "Don't. Please don't," said Bayley, pink with suppressed mirth. "It was all my fault. I must tell old Verschoyle this. I've surprised his plan out of the mouths of babes and sucklings." "What plan?" "Old Vee has taken the battalion up to the top of the common, and he told me he meant to charge down through the kids, but they're on to him already.
Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings," she added, looking up, "dost thou ordain strength. I will be grateful for these mercies, nor allow a weakness to overcome me again."
You are a good Christian, doubtless, and you have heard from your uncle, the Abbot, how praise is made perfect 'out of the mouths of babes and sucklings. Hark to them; they sing of their own destinies and it may be also of yours and mine." And so fascinated and moved at heart at once by her beauty and by her strange words, the Douglas listened.
To the outsider it looks as if the babes and sucklings who have no experience and no precedents would have to save China if. And it's an awful if. It's not surprising that the Japanese with their energy and positiveness feel that they are predestined to govern China.
