I am better off with vegetables at the bottom of my garden than with all the fairies of the Midsummer Night's Dream.

I have the most ill-regulated memory. It does those things which it ought not to do and leaves undone the things it ought to have done. But it has not yet gone on strike altogether.

The education that we have so far succeeded in giving to the bulk of our citizens has produced a generation of mental slatterns.

[T]he more clamour we make about 'the women's point of view', the more we rub it into people that the women's point of view is different, and frankly I do not think it is -- at least in my job. The line I always want to take is, that there is the 'point of view' of the reasonably enlightened human brain, and that this is the aspect of the matter which I am best fitted to uphold.

God wastes nothing - not even sin. The soul that has struggled and come through is enriched by it's experiences, and Grace does not merely blot out the evil past but in the most literal sense "makes it good."

That there is a secret itself is a secret.

Those who make some other person their job... are dangerous.
