The children of God all have a cross to bear.- J.C. Ryle
Every man who is truly a man must learn to be alone in the midst of all others, and if need be, against all others. --Romain Rolland (1866-1944) (In William Safire and Leonard _Words of Wisdom_ [1989], "Beliefs")
When you're waiting for God's timing, you're waiting for His very best.--Charles F. Stanley (1932- ) _Everyday Inspiration_ [2015], "July 25"
Man by grace is made like unto God, and a partaker in His divinity, and . . . without grace he is like unto the brute beasts. --Blaise Pascal (1623-1662) _Pensees_ [1670], Number 434
We are certainly in a common class with the beasts; every action of animal life is concerned with seeking bodily pleasure and avoiding pain. -Saint Augustine (354-430)_The Problem of Free Choice_ [c. 390], "A Mind Is The Slave of Passion Through Its Own Choice"
