All sorts of spiritual gifts come through privations, if they are accepted.

Do not wait for ideal circumstances, nor the best opportunities; they will never come.

Every friendship with God and every love between Him and a soul is the only one of its kind.

All sorts of spiritual gifts come through privations, if they are accepted.

In no order of things is adolescence the time of the simple life.

This world is not the sum total of God's resources -- on the contrary, it is only the 'dream,' the probation, the prelude of the true world, the true life.

Children with heaven in their eyes and an air of mystery about them, meditative and quiet, friends of God, friends of all, loved and loving and asking very little from the outer world, because they have more than enough within. They are classed as the dreamers, but they are really seers. They do not ask much and they do not need much beyond a reverent guardianship and to be let alone and allowed to grow; they will find this way for they are 'taught of God.
