The ultimate test of a moral society is the kind of world that it leaves to its children.

We have learnt, rather too late, that action comes, not from thought, but from a readiness for responsibility.

God has reserved to Himself the right to determine the end of life, because He alone knows the goal to which it is His will to lead it. It is for Him alone to justify a life or to cast it away.

It is grace, nothing but grace, that we are allowed to live in community with Christian brethren.

The ultimate test of a moral society is the kind of world that it leaves to its children.

When our will wholeheartedly enters into the prayer of Christ, then we pray correctly.

Time is the most precious gift in our possession, for it is the most irrevocable. This is what makes it so disturbing to look back upon the time which we have lost. Time lost is time when we have not lived a full human life, time unenriched by experience, creative endeavor, enjoyment, and suffering. Time lost is time not filled, time left empty.
