The thing that is incredible is life itself.

We are all blind until we see That in the human plan Nothing is worth the making If it does not make the man. Why build these cities glorious If man unbuilded goes? We build the world in vain Unless the builders also grow.

The future life is where we will go on helping to bring the universe to perfection, which is God's grand ultimate aim. [The purpose of life] is to help God run the universe. Everyone in that better land will be busy all the time, and the environment will be perfect all the time for doing the work which God assigns to all.

Defeat may serve as well as victory to shake the soul and let the glory out.

We have committed the Golden Rule to memory; let us now commit it to life.

The thing that is incredible is life itself. Why should we be here in this sun-illuminated universe? Why should there be green earth under our feet?

There is a destiny which makes us brothers; none goes his way alone. All that we send into the lives of others comes back into our own.
