A tear is enough water to float a desire to God.

The Christian is the most contented man in the world, but he is the least contented with the world. He is like a traveler in an inn, perfectly satisfied with the inn and its accommodation, considering it as an inn, but putting quite out of all consideration the idea of making it his home.

Don't drown the man who taught you to swim. If you learned your trade or profession from the man, do not set up in opposition to him.
