“There are no ordinary people. You have never talked to a mere mortal. Nations, cultures, arts, civilizations - these are mortal, and their life is to ours as the life of a gnat. But it is immortals whom we joke with, work with, marry, snub and exploit - immortal horrors or everlasting splendors. This does not mean that we are to be perpetually solemn. We must play. But our merriment must be of that kind (and it is, in fact, the merriest kind) which exists between people who have, from the outset, taken each other seriously - no flippancy, no superiority, no presumption.”
― C.S. Lewis, The Weight of Glory

“If you are not praying, then you are quietly confident that time, money, and talent are all you need in life.”
― Paul E. Miller, A Praying Life: Connecting With God In A Distracting World

“The learned man aims for more. But the wise man decreases. And then decreases again.”
― James Altucher, Choose Yourself

“If you know that you, like Jesus, can’t do life on your own, then prayer makes complete sense.”
― Paul E. Miller, A Praying Life: Connecting with God in a Distracting World
