The race is divided into two classes:  those who go ahead and do something, and those who sit still and inquire ‘Why wasn’t it done the other way?’

What confuses work, what mars life and makes it feverish, is the postponing of a task which ought to be done Now!

To get rid of hurry is a great help towards peace.

It is a fact that the habitual performance of the humblest duties has often developed the highest spirituality of character, with a vivid consciousness of God within and around us.

Duty is far more than love.  It is the upholding law through which the weakest become strong, without which all strength is unstable as water.

Work is a stimulus to work! 
and loafing is a stimulus to laziness!

Each little grace invites a larger;  and his step being upward, his view is wider.

Our Master, Christ, has given you this thing to do:  say not that you are ready to do something else, but not this;  say not that this is just what you cannot do;  say not that you are but a mere peg in a machine and have no power to move.

It does not matter to where we have wandered – God seeks us out.
It does not matter how much we have failed – God smiles on us.
It does not matter how much we feel unworthy – God is well pleased with us.
