If you have to do it every day, for God's sake learn to do it well.

How tired God must be of guilt and loneliness, for that is all we ever bring to Him.

We work for praise, and dawdle once we have it.

It does not undo harm to acknowledge that we have done it; but it undoes us not to acknowledge it.

The past is rich in lessons from which we would greatly profit except that the present is always so full of Special Circumstances.

When "Why not do it?" barely outweighs "Why do it?" — don't do it.

A bore: one who knows as well as you do what he is going to say next.
