“It would seem that Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased.”

“The only limit to our realization of tomorrow will be our doubts of today. Let us move forward with strong and active faith.”

“I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.”

“We are not necessarily doubting that God will do the best for us; we are wondering how painful the best will turn out to be.”

“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”
― The Fellowship of the Ring
