“Gratitude bestows reverence, allowing us to encounter everyday epiphanies, those transcendent moments of awe that change forever how we experience life and the world.”

The mind is its own place, and in itself, can make heaven of Hell, and a hell of Heaven.

Infinity is a dark illimitable ocean, without bound.

Loneliness is the first thing which God’s eye named not good.

My latest found, Heaven’s last, best gift, my ever new delight!

Retiring from the popular noise, I seek This unfrequented place to find some ease.

Suffering for truth’s sake Is fortitude to highest victory, And to the faithful death the gate of life.

Meanwhile the Adversary of God and man, Satan with thoughts inflamed of highest design, Puts on swift wings, and towards the gates of hell Explores his solitary flight.

Innocence, Once Lost, Can Never Be Regained. Darkness, Once Gazed Upon, Can Never Be Lost.

Consider first, that great or bright infers not excellence.

This is servitude, To serve the unwise.

Long is the way and hard, that out of hell leads up to light.

Awake, arise or be for ever fall’n.

The best apology against false accusers is silence.

The virtuous mind that ever walks attended By a strong siding champion, Conscience.

He who reigns within himself and rules passions, desires, and fears is more than a king.

Nothing profits more than self-esteem, grounded on what is just and right.
