A child educated only at school is an uneducated child.- George Santayana, 1863 - 1952

To be a king and wear a crown is a thing more glorious to them that see it than it is pleasant to them that bear it.-Elizabeth I of England, 1533 - 1603

If I follow the inclination of my nature, it is this: beggar-woman and single, far rather than queen and married.- Elizabeth I of England, 1533 - 1603

There is no marvel in a woman learning to speak, but there would be in teaching her to hold her tongue.- Elizabeth I of England, 1533 - 1603

It often astonishes me that I did not see the importance of meditation upon Scripture earlier in my Christian life. As the outward man is not fit for work for any length of time unless he eats, so it is with the inner man. What is the food for the inner man? Not prayer, but the Word of God – not the simple reading of the Word of God, so that it only passes through our minds, just as water runs through a pipe. No, we must consider what we read, ponder over it, and apply it to our hearts.- George Muller,The Autobiography of George Muller, 1984, p. 139.
