And when they call themselves the good and the just, do not forget that they would be pharisees, if only they had—power.”
“I know in whom all my highest hopes and dearest joys are centered. I know in whom my whole heart can rest — so sweetly and so surely.”
“Place your hopes in the man from whom you do not inherit”
