Whoever has skill in music is of good temperament and fitted for all things. We must teach music in schools.

Whatever we make the most of is our God.

Man is man because he is free to operate within a framework of his destiny. He is free to deliberate, to make decisions, and to choose between alternatives. He is distinguished from animals by his freedom to do evil or to do good and to walk the high road of beauty or tread the low road of ugly degeneracy.

You are not only responsible for what you say, but also for what you do not say

The world doesn't want to be punished. It wants to remain in darkness. It doesn't want to be told that what it believes is false. If you also don't want to be corrected, then you might as well leave the church and spend your time at the bar and brothel. But if you want to be saved-and remember that there's another life after this one-you must accept correction.

God created the world out of nothing, and so long as we are nothing, He can make something out of us.

It is pleasing to the dear God whenever thou rejoicest or laughest from the bottom of thy heart.
