 Call your opinions your creed, and you will change them every week. Make your creed simply and broadly out of the revelation of God, and you will keep it to the end.

 Do not pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men. Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers. Pray for powers equal to your tasks.

 I do not pray for a lighter load, but for a stronger back.

 If you could only know and see and feel, all of a sudden, that 'the time is short,' how it would break the spell. How you would go instantly and do the thing, which you might never have another chance to do!

 It is while you are patiently toiling at the little tasks of life that the meaning and shape of the great whole of life dawn on you.
