“Modern life assaults us with an infinite range of things we could do, we would love to do, or some people tell us we should do. But we are not God and we are neither infinite nor eternal. We are quite simply finite. We have only so many years, so much energy, so many gray cells, and so many bank notes in our wallets. 'Life is too short to...' eventually shortens to 'life is too short.”
― Os Guinness, The Call

“We cannot find God without God. We cannot reach God without God. We cannot satisfy God without God—which is another way of saying that our seeking will always fall short unless God’s grace initiates the search and unless God’s call draws us to him and completes the search.”
― Os Guinness, The Call: Finding and Fulfilling the Central Purpose of Your Life

“We cannot think of being acceptable to others until we have first proven acceptable to ourselves.”
― Malcolm X

“It was a running joke; everyone was aware of how ridiculous the rumor mill was, and yet they all shamelessly participated in it.”
― Jamie McGuire, Beautiful Disaster
