"I am often guilty of expecting the worst so as to avoid disappointment and welcome surprise."
"Children are the most reasonable about discipline. When they tell you not to do something, it's always because they know why."
"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."
"There's sometimes a tugging feeling you get to push further when you aren't being challenged enough or when things get too comfortable."
