“Seldom can the heart be lonely,If it seek a lonelier still;Self-forgetting, seeking onlyEmptier cups of love to fill.”

“Hidden in the hollow of His blessed hand,Never foe can follow, never traitor stand,Not a surge of worry, not a shade of care,Not a blast of hurry touch the spirit there.Stayed upon God, hearts are fully blest,Finding as God promised, perfect peace and rest.”

“True stories seldom have endings.”

“True stories seldom have endings.I don't want a happy ending, I want more story.”

“Unused to the situations in which I find myself, and embarassed by the slightest difficulties, I seldom discover, till too late, how I ought to act.”

“The secret of human happiness is not in self-seeking but in self-forgetting.”

“Sometimes the valley below is like a bowl filled up with fog. I can see hard green figs on two trees and pears on a tree just below me. A fine crop coming in. May summer last a hundred years.”
