Faith begins as an experiment, and ends as an experience.

I have no fear that the candle lighted in Palestine years ago will ever be put out.

Experience proves that none is so cruel as the disillusioned sentimentalist.

Faith always contains an element of risk, of venture; and we are impelled to make the venture by the affinity and attraction which we feel in ourselves.

Worry is interest paid on trouble before it comes due.

Prayer gives a man the opportunity of getting to know a gentleman he hardly ever meets. I do not mean his maker, but himself.

Bereavement is the sharpest challenge to our trust in God; if faith can overcome this, there is no mountain which it cannot remove.
