Eugene Peterson

J.R.R. Tolkien

J.R.R. Tolkien, The Two Towers

Henri J.M. Nouwen
“birthdays need to be celebrated. i think it is more important to celebrate a birthday than a successful exam or promotion or a victory. because to celebrate a birthday means to say to someone "thank you for being you".”
Henri J.M. Nouwen, Here and Now: Living in the Spirit

J.R.R. Tolkien
“I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Two Towers

Augustine of Hippo
“Thou hast made us for thyself, O Lord, and our heart is restless until it finds its rest in thee.”
