“Once in our world,
a stable had something in it,
that was bigger,
than our whole world.”
“Enemy-occupied territory –
that is what this world is.

you might say landed in disguise
and is calling us all, to take part,
in a great campaign of sabotage.”
“Real joy
seems to me,
almost as unlike
security or prosperity,
as it is unlike
agony.”
“Do not waste time bothering
whether you “love” your neighbour;
act as if you did.
As soon as we do this we find
one of the great secrets.
When you are behaving as if
you loved someone,
you will presently come to love him.”
“There are two kinds of people –
those who say to God,
‘Thy will be done’
and those to whom God says,
‘All right, then, have it your way.'”
“You can’t go back
and change the beginning
but you can start where you are
and change the ending.”
“God whispers to us in our pleasures,
speaks in our conscience
but shouts in our pains –
it is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world.”
“God, who foresaw your tribulation,
has specially armed you to go through it,
not without pain but without stain.”
“He died for us.
Why not live for Him?”
