We are, on the whole, an idolatrous people...

Man must live, not only exist; he must do, not merely be; he must grow, not just vegetate.

Humility is royalty without a crown.

Jesus perfected his life and became our Christ. Priceless blood of a god was shed, and he became our Savior; his perfected life was given, and he became our Redeemer; his atonement for us made possible our return to our Heavenly Father, and yet how thoughtless, how unappreciative are most beneficiaries! Ingratitude is a sin of the ages.

To be mediocre, when only application and diligence would have netted superiority, is an error akin to sin.

Goals should always be made to a point that will make us reach and strain.

We know so little. Our judgment is so limited. We judge the Lord's ways from our own narrow view.
