All of us have far too much to do to waste our time and energies in criticism, faultfinding, or the abuse of others.

To me the gospel is not a great mass of theological jargon. It is a simple and beautiful and logical thing, with one quiet truth following another in orderly sequence. I do not fret over the mysteries. I do not worry whether the heavenly gates swing or slide. I am only concerned that they open.

Knowledge without labor is profitless. Knowledge with labor is genius.

Live today as if you were going to live forever, for you surely shall.
