Elisabeth Elliot
“He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose.”
Elisabeth Elliot, Through Gates of Splendor

Bob Goff
“Jesus talked to His friends a lot about how we should identify ourselves. He said it wouldn’t be what we said we believed or all the good we hoped to do someday. Nope, He said we would identify ourselves simply by how we loved people. It’s tempting to think there is more to it, but there’s not. Love isn’t something we fall into; love is some
one we become.”
Bob Goff, Everybody, Always: Becoming Love in a World Full of Setbacks and Difficult People

Harper Lee
“As sure as time, history is repeating itself, and as sure as man is man, history is the last place he’ll look for his lessons.”
Harper Lee, Go Set a Watchman

Harper Lee
“I guess it’s like an airplane: they’re the drag and we’re the thrust, together we make the thing fly. Too much of us and we’re nose-heavy, too much of them and we’re tail-heavy—it’s a matter of balance.”
Harper Lee, Go Set a Watchman

Harper Lee
“I'm only trying to make you see beyond men's acts to their motives. A man can appear to be a part of something not-so-good on its face, but don't take it upon yourself to judge him unless you know his motives as well. A man can be boiling inside, but he knows a mild answer works better than showing his rage. A man can condemn his enemies, but it's wiser to know them. ... Have you ever considered that men, especially men, must conform to the demands of the community they live in simply so they can be of service to it?”
Harper Lee, Go Set a Watchman
