Rob LoweIt's so hard when sincere prayer about something you desire very much is not answered the way you want. It is difficult to understand why your exercise of deep and sincere faith from an obedient life does not grant the desired result.

Daniel WebsterStill, no one finally knows what a poet is supposed either to be or to do.
