"The complete recipe for imagination is absolute boredom."
Imagination
"We are to love God most importantly so that we can grow to love people as he loved us, not so that we can feel more divine and worthy than the worldly."
Faith
"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."
Spiritual
"Conscious minds can, at the most, comprehend that the whole idea of a 'God' is his superiority, his omnipotence, omnipresence, and omniscience; and therefore, at the least, desire him, someone far greater than themselves."
Faith
"I am often guilty of expecting the worst so as to avoid disappointment and welcome surprise."
Expectation
"Children are the most reasonable about discipline. When they tell you not to do something, it's always because they know why."
Discipline
"Love is as simple as the absence of self given to another. God, when invited, fills the void of any unrequited love; hence loving is how one is drawn closer to God no matter its most horrific repercussions."
Love
"For God to prove himself on demand, physically, would be a grave disappointment, and the strongest Christians should be considerably grateful that he chooses not to do so. The skeptic endlessly demands proof, yet God refuses to insult the true intelligence of man, the '6th sense', the chief quality, the acumen which distinguishes man from the rest of creation, faith."
Faith
"Always seek justice, but love only mercy. To love justice and hate mercy is but a doorway to more injustice."
Justice
"There's sometimes a tugging feeling you get to push further when you aren't being challenged enough or when things get too comfortable."
