--George MacDonald

Real love...wills the good of the one loved, but it knows that that good is to be found in loving obedience to the will of God.

--Rev. Gerald Vann

Never undertake anything for which you wouldn't have the courage to ask the blessings of heaven.

--G.C.Lichtenberg

As the angels give

If instead of a gem, or even a flower, we should cast the gift of a loving thought into the heart of a friend, that would be giving as the angels give.

--George MacDonald

A single candle

All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle.

--Saint Francis of Assisi
