To understand at all what life means, one must begin with Christian belief. And I think knowledge may be sorrow with a man unless he loves.

With a mind not diseased, a holy life is a life of hope; and at the end of it, death is a great act of hope.

The day of our decease will be that of our coming of age; and with our last breath we shall become free of the universe. And in some region of infinity, and from among its splendors, this earth will be looked back on like a lowly home, and this life of ours be remembered like a short apprenticeship to duty.
