I only know when I don't know a thing. My uncle has taught me that wisdom lies in that.

What I would say is this, that the light is not blinding because God would hide, but because the truth is too glorious for our vision.

God hides nothing. His very work from the beginning is revelation--a casting aside of veil after veil, a showing unto men of truth after truth. On and on from fact Divine He advances, until at length in His Son Jesus He unveils His very face.

Somehow, I can't say how, it tells me that all is right; that it is coming to swallow up all cries.

When we understand the outside of things, we think we have them. Yet the Lord puts his things in subdefined, suggestive shapes, yielding no satisfactory meaning to the mere intellect, but unfolding themselves to the conscience and heart.

As to the pure all things are pure, so the common mind sees far more vulgarity in others than the mind developed in genuine refinement.

To have what we want is riches; but to be able to do without is power.
