He's wild, you know. Not like a tame lion.

If Christianity was something we were making up, of course we could make it easier. But it is not. We cannot compete, in simplicity with people who are inventing religions. How could we? We are dealing with Fact. Of course anyone can be simple if he has no facts to bother about.

Because we love something else more than this world, we love even this world more than those who know no other.

Love is something more stern and splendid than mere kindness.

Chastity is the most unpopular of the Christian virtues.

Besides being complicated, reality, in my experience, is usually odd. It is not neat, not obvious, not what you expect.

God whispers in our pleasures, but shouts in our pain.
