Oh, this thing of keeping in constant touch with God, of making him the object of my thought and the companion of my conversations, is the most amazing thing I ever ran across.

Prayer at its highest is a two-way conversation - and for me the most important part is listening to God's replies.

Before I do a stunt, I have to make sure it is safe.

Youth! youth! how buoyant are thy hopes! they turn, like marigolds, toward the sunny side.

People my age and younger do think much more towards Europe. We have to fill the gap sometime - we can't think we are an empire any longer after all.

We must read the Bible through the eyes of shipwrecked people for whom everything has gone overboard.

We never knew an ignorant person yet but was prejudiced.
