For the eyes of the Lord move to and fro throughout the earth that He may strongly support those whose heart is completely His" (2 Chronicles 16:9 nasb).

Somtimes when you know the right thing to do, you simply have to do it, even though it breaks your heart.

In dark ages people are best guided by religion, as in a pitch-black night a blind man is the best guide; he knows the roads and paths better than a man who can see. When daylight comes, however, it is foolish to use blind, old men as guides.

I always knew He was there, but I didn't know His name.

Si je crois en Dieu? Oui, quand je travaille. Quand je suis soumis et modeste, je me sens tellement aidé par quelqu'un qui me fait faire des choses qui me surpassent.

Instinct must be thwarted just as one prunes the branches of a tree so that it will grow better.

For me there has been no serious difficulty in reconciling the principles of true science with the principles of true religion, for both are concerned with the eternal verities of the universe.

To be a philosopher is not merely to have subtle thoughts, nor even to found a school, but to so love wisdom as to live according to its dictates a life of simplicity, independence, magnanimity and trust

It is only when we forget all our learning that we begin to know.

We are as much as we see. Faith is sight and knowledge. The hands only serve the eyes.

A simple and independent mind does not toil at the bidding of any prince.
