Christianity has died many times and risen again,
for it has a God who knew his way out of the grave.
--G. K. Chesterton (1874-1936)
_The Everlasting Man_ [1925]
“When you go through a trial, the sovereignty of God is the pillow upon which you lay your head.”- Spurgeon:
All who find Christ for themselves are impelled, by the holy necessity of constraining love, to seek the salvation of others. —Andrew Bonar
Dare to be true: nothing can need a lie
A fault, which needs it most, grows two thereby.
--George Herbert (1593-1633)
_The Temple_ [1633], "The Church Porch"
A man is justified in lying to protect the honour
of a woman or to promote public policy.
--Woodrow Wilson (1856—1924)
December 1912 remark to Col. Edward House, in Thomas A Bailey
