Marcus Tullius Cicero
“If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need.”
― Cicero

Lewis Carroll
“One of the deep secrets of life is that all that is really worth the doing is what we do for others.”
― Lewis Carroll

Herman Bavinck
“Beneath the head lies the heart, out of which are the issues of life.”
― Herman Bavinck, The Philosophy of Revelation

Peter Enns
“Whatever we do, let’s not imagine that the Israelites were ancient versions of ourselves, maybe less well groomed, who were “nice,” read their Bibles daily, the kind you could invite to church and want to marry your daughter, who would vote Republican or drive a hybrid. We respect these biblical stories most when we try to understand what the writers did and why, not when we place false expectations on them, like seeing them as a timeless script or a permanent fixture for how to think about God.”
― Peter Enns, The Bible Tells Me So: Why Defending Scripture Has Made Us Unable to Read It

Herman Bavinck
“Scientific information about the universe does not displace God. Some have said that they searched the heavens and did not see God. The universe with its measureless spaces remains a vast mystery to us, and those who do not find God in their immediate presence, in their heart and conscience, in the Word and the Christian community, will not find him in the universe either, even though they are equipped with the best telescopes that money can buy.”
― Herman Bavinck, Reformed Dogmatics: Abridged in One Volume
