I have one great fear in my heart, that one day when they are turned to loving, they will find that we are turned to hating.

I have always found that actively loving saves one from a morbid preoccupation with the shortcomings of society.

Life has not taught me to expect nothing, but she has taught me not to expect success to be the inevitable result of my endeavors. She taught me to seek sustenance from the endeavor itself, but to leave the result to God.

And were your back as broad as heaven, and your purse full of gold, and did your compassion reach from here to hell itself, there is nothing you can do.

For it is the dawn that has come, as it has come for a thousand centuries, never failing.
