"Every Christian would agree that a man's spiritual health is exactly proportional to his love for God."

"For pride is spiritual cancer: it eats up the very possibility of love, or contentment, or even common sense."

"You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending."

"A proud man is always looking down on things and people; and, of course, as long as you are looking down, you cannot see something that is above you."

"Everyone thinks forgiveness is a lovely idea until he has something to forgive."

"Gratitude looks to the Past and love to the Present; fear, avarice, lust, and ambition look ahead."
