• I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.
• I have found a desire within myself that no experience in this world can satisfy; the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world.
• Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another: What! You too? I thought I was the only one.
• A man can no more diminish God’s glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word ‘darkness’ on the walls of his cell.
• No one ever told me that grief felt so like fear.
• Love is not affectionate feeling, but a steady wish for the loved person’s ultimate good as far as it can be obtained.
• You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.
• Aim at heaven and you will get earth thrown in. Aim at earth and you get neither.
• God cannot give us a happiness and peace apart from Himself, because it is not there. There is no such thing.
• Faith, in the sense in which I am here using the word, is the art of holding on to things your reason has once accepted, in spite of your changing moods.
