Balance the bad news of life with the good news of Christ.

Nothing is so strong as gentleness.

Faced with the immensity of the universe, Job realized that there are limits to man's rationalizing, that we cannot find where the cloud of sorrow starts, that all our boasted knowledge is but an island in the vast ocean of mystery, and as the island of knowledge grows larger, the shore line of mystery becomes longer. At the end of his wits, he surrendered in trust to a Higher Wisdom.

When the dictators and the opportunists are gone, the cross will still stand before us and something in us will say, That is the real thing.

True liberty consists not merely in being free from something, but also in being free for something.

As long as we can keep our international relations in the realm of conference rather than open conflict, we are giving truth more time to vindicate itself. And what we ourselves need is more faith in the power of truth.

Gentleness is a divine trait: nothing is so divine as gentleness, and nothing is so gentle as real strength.
