Quotes

  • Yea, when mortality dissolves, Shall I not meet thine hour unawed? My house eternal in the heavens Is lighted by the smile of God!
  • We serve Him most who take the most of His exhaustless love.
  • Desolate—Life is so dreary and desolate—Women and men in the crowd meet and mingle,Yet with itself every soul standeth single,Deep out of sympathy moaning its moan—Holding and having its brief exultation—Making its lonesome and low lamentation—Fighting its terrible conflicts alone.
  • How many lives we live in one,And how much less than one, in all.
