The greatest thing in all the world is loving. The second greatest in all the world is learning.

When it comes to believing in the important things in life (like love, hope, justice, peace) we have a hard time proving they are real things. We cannot put love in a beaker over a Bunsen burner and watch it prove its existence to us. We believe in love because we have faith that it is there. Our faith in love is not blind faith. Though we cannot prove love is real, we have reasons for believing that it is. It’s the same with God. No one can prove God’s existence, but we can have faith in the evidence that we do have." (Life Hacks, p.18)

Be free all worthy spirits, and stretch yourselves, for greatness and for height.

... God loved me not because I was lovable, but because it was His nature to do so.

Oh! that I might repose on Thee! Oh! that Thou wouldest enter into my heart, inebriate it, that I may forget my ills, and embrace Thee, my sole good?

We shall never arrive at true meekness by any other way than by humiliating ourselves and by honoring others from the depth of our hearts.
