The Spirit is a voice that one feels more than hears.

You must know that baptism for someone who is dead is quite as essential as baptism for some one who is living.

Happily ever after never happens in the second act.

The rapid, sweeping deterioration of values is characterized by a preoccupation-even an obsession-with the procreative act. Abstinence before marriage and fidelity within it are openly scoffed at-marriage and parenthood ridiculed as burdensome, unnecessary. Modesty, a virtue of a refined individual or society, is all but gone.

Our lives are made up of thousands of everyday choices. Over the years these little choices will be bundled together and show clearly what we value.

We are able to feel and learn very quickly through music, through art, through poetry some spiritual things that we would otherwise learn very slowly.

Those who choose, conduct, present, and accompany the music may influence the spirit of reverence ... more than a speaker does.
