If your value is not in me and my value is not in you, then I will not force you to like me; I will not force you to love me, so go!"

"The aim is to love God because the pure heart loves loving God and because the true mind knows He deserves it. Unlike the accusations and beliefs of the critics and skeptics, it is neither an obligation of duty; nor a fear of damnation; nor a wish for power; nor a desire to appear more righteous than others; nor because God needs it; but because through all love, truth, reason, faith, honesty, and joy in and beyond oneself and the universe, He is worthy."
"I am often guilty of expecting the worst so as to avoid disappointment and welcome surprise."
