"A sentimentalist is one who delights to have high and devout emotions stirred whilst reading in an arm-chair, or in a prayer meeting, but he never translates his emotions into action. Consequently a sentimentalist is usually callous, self-centred and selfish, because the emotions he likes to have stirred do not cost him anything."

Philosophy

"Prayer is not an exercise, it is the life of the saint. Beware of anything that stops the offering up of prayer."
