Quotes:
He had a different map, and that was the one in his mind,
made up of all the people and places he had passed.
Rachel Joyce, The Unlikely Pilgramage of Harold Fry , page 256===
Genesis may be silent on God's making of something;
yet sound faith and sure reasoning put it beyond
any doubt that God made it.
Augustine, Confessions, Book 12.22.31====
It seems to me we already spend too much time
quantifying California and not enough time knowing it.
- John McKinney, A Walk Along Land's End, pg xv===
Facts are collected indiscriminately by the naive empiricist,
who lives in fear of missing the one fact that will give meaning to the rest.
His fear is justified;
that fact will never be found.
- Evan Eisenberg, The Recording Angel
as quoted by Nicolas Carr, Rough TYpe Blog, March 15, 2012===
The times demand not a man bearing promises of new things,
but a man who can finish the things begun...
who, with a steady hand and a heart
always kind and a mind always generously just,
can clean off the desk.
- William Allen White,
The American Magazine, April 1908,

Diary of an Old Soul-MacDonald
Nothing is alien in thy world immense—
No look of sky or earth or man or beast;
"In the great hand of God I stand, and thence"
Look out on life, his endless, holy feast.
To try to feel is but to court despair,
To dig for a sun within a garden-fence:
Who does thy will, O God, he lives upon thy air.
