“Knowing who God is matters to us. It changes not only the way we think about him, but the way we think about ourselves. The knowledge of God and the knowledge of self always go hand in hand.”
Jen Wilkin, None Like Him: 10 Ways God Is Different from Us

John R.W. Stott
“Our love grows soft if it is not strengthened by truth, and our truth grows hard if it is not softened by love.”
John Stott

J.I. Packer
“Knowing about God is crucially important for the living of our lives. As it would be cruel to an Amazonian tribesmen to fly him to London, put him down without explanation in Trafalgar Square and leave him, as one who knew nothing of English or England, to fend for himself, so we are cruel to ourselves if we try to live in this world without knowing about the God whose world it is and who runs it .The world becomes a strange, mad, painful place, and life in it a disappointing and unpleasant business, for those who do not know about God. Disregard the study of God, and you sentence yourself to stumble and blunder through life blindfold, as it were , with no sense of direction, and no understanding of what surrounds you. This way you can waste your life and lose your soul.”
J.I. Packer, Knowing God

Dick King-Smith
“A little of what you like does you good. But you can have too much of a good thing.”
Dick King-Smith, Ace: The Very Important Pig

Elaine Scarry
“to have great pain is to have certainty; to hear that another person has pain is to have doubt.”
Elaine Scarry, The Body in Pain: The Making and Unmaking of the World
