Actually it seems to me that one can hardly say anything either bad enough or good enough about life.

Good, as it ripens, becomes continually more different not only from evil but from other good.

In the same way a Christian is not a man who never goes wrong, but a man is enabled to repent and pick himself up and begin over again after each stumble--because the Christ-life is inside him, repairing him all the time, enabling him to repeat (in some degree) the kind of voluntary death which Christ Himself carried out." - Mere Christianity

The Christian idea of 'putting on Christ' is the whole of Christianity.

The value given to the testimony of any feeling must depend on our whole philosophy, not our whole philosophy on a feeling.

It is no disparagement to the garden to say it will not fence and weed itself, nor prune its own fruit trees, nor roll and cut its own lawns...It will remain a garden only if someone does all these things to it...If you want to see the difference between [the garden's] contribution and the gardener's, put the commonest weed it grows side by side with his hoes rakes, shears, and a packet of weed killer; you have put beauty, energy, and fecundity beside dead, steril things. Just so, our 'decency and common sense' show grey and deathlike beside the geniality of love.

You can’t get second things by putting them first. You get second things only by putting first things first.
