What the United States does best is to understand itself. What it does worst is understand others.

What sunshine is to flowers, smiles are to humanity. These are but trifles, to be sure but scattered along life’s pathway, the good they do is inconceivable.

What starts the process, really, are laughs and slights and snubs when you are a kid. … If your anger is deep enough and strong enough, you learn that you can change those attitudes by excellence, personal gut performance.

What spirit is so empty and blind, that it cannot recognize the fact that the foot is more noble than the shoe, and skin more beautiful that the garment with which it is clothed

What spectacle can be more edifying or more seasonable than that of Liberty and Learning, each leaning on the other for their natural and surest support.

What some call health, if purchased by perpetual anxiety about diet, isn’t much better than tedious disease.

What should we emphasize in our teaching We learn much from Paul’s letters to Timothy and Titus. Paul mentored each and sent them out to the churches to encourage and instruct God’s Children of Grace. Notice how often Paul uses the words ‘command,’ ‘warn,’ and ‘remind’ in his letters to Timothy and Titus. God wants us to be loving and gentle in the way we teach His children, but He also wants us to be strong, precise and decisive in what we declare. We are not ‘asking’ Christians to obey God’s Word. We are ‘telling’ them what God commands. We have no special power in ourselves, but when we preach God’s Word we have the ‘Power’ of God behind us Our preaching and teaching should be in the ‘Power and Strength’ of God. He gave us the responsibility and authority to declare His Word. We do it humbly, but we do it.

What should move us to action is human dignity the inalienable dignity of the oppressed, but also the dignity of each of us. We lose dignity if we tolerate the intolerable.

What seem our worst prayers may really be, in God’s eyes, our best. Those, I mean, which are least supported by devotional feeling. For these may come from a deeper level than feeling. God sometimes seems to speak to us most intimately when he catches us, as it were, off our guard.
