“Man is made by his belief. As he believes, so he is.”
― Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

“We will not wish we had made more money, acquired more stuff, lived more comfortably, taken more vacations, watched more television, pursued greater retirement, or been more successful in the eyes of this world. Instead, we will wish we had given more of ourselves to living for the day when every nation, tribe, people, and language will bow around the throne and sing the praises of the Savior who delights in radical obedience and the God who deserves eternal worship.”
― David Platt, Radical: Taking Back Your Faith from the American Dream

“إذا كان لدينا الصبا ، والجمال ، والقوة ، والموهبة ، وإذا وجدنا الشهرة ، والثروة ، والحظوة ، والرضى ، فمن السهل أن نكون لطفاء ، وأن نلقى العالم بقلب ودود . لكن دعنا فقط نفقد الحظوة ، والجمال ، والقوة ، والصحة ؛ دعنا نجد أنفسنا مرضى ، وتعساء ، ومن دون أمل واضح بالشفاء ؛ حينها فقط ستُمتحَن قوة احتمالنا ، وشخصيتنا الأخلاقية ، إلى الحد الأقصى .”
