“Only as we mature does affection begin to depend on achievement.”
“To achieve style, begin by affecting none.”
“God does not begin by asking us about our ability, but only about our availability, and if we then prove our dependability, he will increase our capability.”
“Youth ends when egotism does; maturity begins when one lives for others.”
“Mature affection, homage, devotion, does not easily express itself. Its voice is low. It is modest and retiring, it lies in ambush, waits and waits. Such is the mature fruit. Sometimes a life glides away, and finds it still ripening in the shade.”
“God does not begin by asking our ability, but more of our availability. When we prove our dependability, He will in crease our capability.”
