The world's idea of greatness is to rule, but Christian greatness consists in serving. The world's ambition is to receive honor and attention, but the desire of the Christian should be to give rather than receive, and to attend on others rather than be attended on himself. In short, the man who lays himself out most to serve his fellow men, and to be useful in his day and generation, is the greatest man in the eyes of Christ.~ J.C. Ryle, Expository Thoughts on the Gospels: Mark, [Carlisle, PA: Banner of Truth, 1985], 187.

It does not prove a thing to be right because the majority say it is so.- Friedrich Schiller, 1759 - 1805

To one, science is an exalted goddess; to another it is a cow which provides him with butter.- Friedrich Schiller, 1759 - 1805
