Faith is always at a disadvantage; it is a perpetually defeated thing which survives all conquerors.

Man is an exception, whatever else he is. If he is not the image of God, then he is a disease of the dust. If it is not true that a divine being fell, then we can only say that one of the animals went entirely off its head.

Youth is always too serious, and just now it is too serious about frivolity.

One of the great disadvantages of hurry is that it takes such a long time.

Just at present you only see the tree by the light of the lamp. I wonder when you would ever see the lamp by the light of the tree.

To downgrade the human mind is bad theology.

A faith is that which is able to survive a mood.
