Being and Doing – 26 September – Friendship
I LOVE to think that Christian friendships may be part of the business of eternity.
I LOVE to think that Christian friendships may be part of the business of eternity.
What is it that most charms us in a friend? …it is that he never mistakes, but sees us true, when all the world is wrong about us;
Respect the natural modesty of the soul; its more delicate flowers of feeling close their petals where they are touched too rudely.
IT IS the wisdom of life to receive our friends as from the hand of God,
A TRUE friend is one who makes us do what we can.
LIFE is measured by thought and action, not by time.
LITTLE minds are in a hurry when the object proves (as it commonly does) too big for them;
Let the duties that lie nearest you be always the most imperative;
…Let the aim of such persons be to do the thing well rather than to get through it fast.
To choose time is to save time.
