Quotes May 17

Life is short and we have never too much time for
gladdening the hearts of those who are traveling
the dark journey with us.  Oh, be swift to love,
make haste to be kind!
     --Henri-Frederic Amiel (1821-1881)
      _Journal Intime_ [1883], "December 16, 1868"

We cannot expect the world to believe that the
Father sent the Son, that Jesus' claims are true,
and that Christianity is true, unless the world sees
some reality of oneness of true Christians.
     --Francis Schaeffer (1912-1984)
      _The Mark Of The Christian_ [2006]

... to say with Carlyle that the Qu'ran is 'a wearisome confused jumble' with endless iterations, longwindedness, entanglement' - Theodore Dalrymple, Our Culture What's Left of It, p.290
