Let me always remember that it is not the amount of religious knowledge which I have, but the amount which I use, that determines my religious position and character.

You cannot put patience and experience into a parenthesis, and, omitting them, bring hope out of tribulation.

A picture without sky has no glory. This present, unless we see gleaming beyond it the eternal calm of the heavens, above the tossing tree tops with withering leaves, and the smoky chimneys, is a poor thing for our eyes to gaze at, or our hearts to love, or our hands to toil on.

To pursue joy is to lose it. The only way to get it is to follow steadily the path of duty.

Remember that vision on the Mount of Transfiguration; and let it be ours, even in the glare of earthly joys and brightnesses, to lift up our eyes, like those wondering three, and see no man any more, save Jesus only.

There can be no faith so feeble that Christ does not respond to it.
