In silence and in meditation on the eternal truths, I hear the voice of God which excites our hearts to greater love.

You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.

I can't imagine a man really enjoying a book and reading it only once.

When a man is getting better he understands more and more clearly the evil that is still left in him. When a man is getting worse he understands his own badness less and less.

The human qualities of the raw materials show through. Naivety, error, contradiction, even (as in the cursing Psalms) wickedness are not removed. The total result is not "the Word of God" in the sense that every passage in itself, gives impeccable science or history. It carries the Word of God.

Some people write heavily, some write lightly. I prefer the light approach because I believe there is a great deal of false reverence about. There is too much solemnity and intensity in dealing with sacred matters; too much speaking in holy tones.

Onward and Upward! To Narnia and the North!
