That you may retain your self-respect, it is better to displease the people by doing what you know is right, than to temporarily please them by doing what you know is wrong.
William J. H. BoetckerWhat a different world this would be if people would listen to those who know more and not merely try to get something from those who have more.
William J. H. BoetckerBetter to be a strong man with a weak point, than to be a weak man without a strong point. A diamond with a flaw is more valuable that a brick without a flaw.
William J. H. BoetckerTrue religion... is giving and finding one's happiness by bringing happiness into the lives of others.
William J. H. BoetckerTrue religion is not a mere doctrine, something that can be taught, but is a way of life. A life in community with God. It must be experienced to be appreciated. A life of service. A living by giving and finding one's own happiness by bringing happiness into the lives of others.
