God is too good to be unkind and He is too wise to be mistaken. And when we cannot trace His hand, we must trust His heart.

When your will is God's will, you will have your will.

By perseverance the snail reached the ark.

Faith goes up the stairs that love has built and looks out the windows which hope has opened.

Let your cares drive you to God. I shall not mind if you have many of them if each one leads you to prayer. If every fret makes you lean more on the Beloved, it will be a benefit.

You will never glory in God till first of all God has killed your glorying in yourself.

O child of God, be more careful to keep the way of the Lord, more concentrated in heart in seeking His glory, and you will see the loving-kindness and the tender mercy of the Lord in your life.

Groanings which cannot be uttered are often prayers which cannot be refused.

I have now concentrated all my prayers into one, and that one prayer is this, that I may die to self, and live wholly to Him.

If Christ has died for me, I cannot trifle with the evil that killed my best Friend.

Have you no wish for others to be saved? Then you're not saved yourself, be sure of that!

Follow your dreams with all of your mind. Chase your dreams with all of your heart. Accomplish your dreams with all of your soul.

You are valuable

A lobster bisque ought to be the crowning glory of the potager. And this one was excellent. Silky as a gigolo's compliment and fishy as a chancellor's promise.

I don't worry about things that aren't important.

It has always been my rule in business to make everything count.

In a hierarchy, every employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence.

If you make something your life's work, make sure it's something you can feel proud of when you're an old relic like me.

Eventually, I think you find a spiritual and emotional connection with someone, and I think it unifies you with everyone else. I think if you love one person, it makes you love everyone.

Ideas don't get smaller when they're shared, they get bigger.

When I get off tour, I want nothing to do with anyone.
