“If I can put one touch of rosy sunset into the life of any man or woman, I shall feel that I have worked with God.”

And when it rains on your parade, look up rather than down. Without the rain, there would be no rainbow.

The golden age only comes to men when they have forgotten gold.

It is absurd for the Evolutionist to complain that it is unthinkable for an admittedly unthinkable God to make everything out of nothing and then pretend that it is more thinkable that nothing should turn itself into everything.

I have known many happy marriages, but never a compatible one. The whole aim of marriage is to fight through and survive the instant when incompatibility becomes unquestionable. For a man and a woman, as such, are incompatible.

There are two ways to get enough. One is to continue to accumulate more and more. The other is to desire less.

The object of opening the mind, as of opening the mouth, is to shut it again on something solid.

The problem of disbelieving in God is not that a man ends up believing nothing. Alas, it is much worse. He ends up believing anything.

Stick to the man who looks out of the window and tries to understand the world. Keep clear of the man who looks in at the window and tries to understand you.

If you argue with a madman, it is extremely probable that you will get the worst of it; for in many ways his mind moves all the quicker for not being delayed by the things that go with good judgment.

We make our friends; we make our enemies; but God makes our next door neighbour.

The word ‘good’ has many meanings. For example, if a man were to shoot his grandmother at a range of five hundred yards, I should call him a good shot, but not necessarily a good man.

Gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder.

It [feminism] is mixed up with a muddled idea that women are free when they serve their employers but slaves when they help their husbands.

Marriage halves our griefs, doubles our joys, and quadruples our expenses.

A thing constructed can only be loved after it is constructed; but a thing created is loved before it exists.

A heart given to God loses none of its natural tenderness; on the contrary, the more pure and divine it becomes, the more such tenderness increases.

The fullness of joy is to behold God in everything. God is the ground, the substance, the teaching, the teacher, the purpose, and the reward for which every soul labors.

Love of God is pure when joy and suffering inspire an equal degree of gratitude.

The devil fears hearts on fire with love of God.

Let us serve the world soulfully. The pay we will receive for our service will be in the currency of gratitude, God’s gratitude, God the only gratitude.

Politicians. Little Tiny Gods on Wheels.

Be who God meant you to be and you will set the world on fire.

God will not be outdone in generosity.
