Life asks not merely what you can do; it asks how much can you endure and not be spoiled.

The tragic evils of our life are so commonly unintentional. We did not start out for that poor, cheap goal. That aim was not in our minds at all....Look to the road you are walking on. He who picks up one end of [a] stick picks up the other.He who chooses the beginning of a road chooses the place it leads to.

Bitterness imprisons life; love releases it. Bitterness paralyzes life; love empowers it. Bitterness sours life; love sweetens it. Bitterness sickens life; love heals it. Bitterness blinds life; love anoints its eyes.

The steady discipline of intimate friendship with Jesus results in men becoming like Him.

Of all mad faiths maddest is the faith that we can get rid of faith.
