    Sheri Dew
    “It is not possible to sin enough to be happy. It isn't possible to buy enough to be happy, or to entertain or indulge or pamper ourselves enough to be happy. It is not possible to hide enough or run far enough away from trials and troubles to be happy. Happiness and joy come only when we are living up to who we are...

    I have never met anyone who was happier because he was immoral, or because he was addicted to something, or because he was dishonest and compromised his integrity. ”
    Sheri L. Dew, God Wants a Powerful People

    “Men and women who turn their lives over to God will discover that He can make a lot more out of their lives than they can.

    Ezra Taft Benson

    Ezra Taft Benson
    “The Lord works from the inside out. The world works from the outside in. The world would take people out of the slums. Christ would take the slums out of people, and then they would take themselves out of the slums.
    The world would mold men by changing their environment. Christ changes men, who then change their environment. The world would shape human behavior, but Christ can change human nature.”
    Ezra Taft Benson

    “What win I, if I gain the thing I seek?
    A dream, a breath, a froth of fleeting joy.
    Who buys a minute's mirth to wail a week?
    Or sells eternity to get a toy?
    For one sweet grape who will the vine destroy?
    Or what fond beggar, but to touch the crown,
    Would with the sceptre straight be strucken down?”
    William Shakespeare, The Rape of Lucrece

    Ella Wheeler Wilcox
    “One ship drives east and another drives west
    With the selfsame winds that blow.
    Tis the set of the sails
    And not the gales
    Which tells us the way to go.
    Like the winds of the seas are the ways of fate,
    As we voyage along through the life:
    Tis the set of a soul
    That decides its goal,
    And not the calm or the strife. ”
    Ella Wheeler Wilcox
