Have they forgotten that I'm in here? They'll have to bring more food, or at least more water, or else I will starve, I will shrivel, my skin will dry out, all yellow like old linen; I will turn into a skeleton, I will be found months, years, centuries from now on, and they will say Who is this, she must have slipped our mind, Well sweep all those bones and rubbish into the corner, but save the buttons, no sense in having them go to waste, there's no help for it now.

Religion to Be a Part of Home Education—Home religion is fearfully neglected. Men and women show much interest in foreign missions.

But the home is their special field, and no excuse is accepted by God for neglecting this field.
- Ellen White
God is full of love and plenteous in mercy; but He will by no means acquit those who neglect the great salvation He has provided.

So with us; by idle talk, evilspeaking, or neglect of prayer, we may in one day lose the Saviour's presence, and it may take many days of sorrowful search to find Him, and regain the peace that we have lost.
- Ellen White
Transgression of the law of God, not the neglect of external, man-made ceremonies, that defiles a man.
- Ellen White
Every day, I wake up determined to deliver a better life for the people all across this nation that have been neglected, ignored, and abandoned. I have visited the laid-off factory workers and the communities crushed by our horrible and unfair trade deals. These are the forgotten men and women of our country.
