“Value all books in proportion to how they agree with Scripture. Those that are nearest to it are the best, and those that are furthest from it and most contrary to it, are the worst.”
― J.C. Ryle, Thoughts for Young Men

“A hundred suspicions don't make a proof.”
― Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Crime and Punishment

“Be sure of your call to every business you go about. Though it is the least business, be sure of your call to it; then, whatever you meet with, you may quiet your heart with this: I know I am where God would have me. Nothing in the world will quiet the heart so much as this: when I meet with any cross, I know I am where God would have me, in my place and calling; I am about the work that God has set me.”
― Jeremiah Burroughs, The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment

“Do you know I don't know how one can walk by a tree and not be happy at the sight of it? How can one talk to a man and not be happy in loving him! Oh, it's only that I'm not able to express it...And what beautiful things there are at every step, that even the most hopeless man must feel to be beautiful! Look at a child! Look at God's sunrise! Look at the grass, how it grows! Look at the eyes that gaze at you and love you!”
― Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Idiot
