“Destiny isn't a path any cat follows blindly. It is always a matter of choice, and sometimes the heart speaks loudest. Listen to your heart, because that's where your true destiny lies.”
― Erin Hunter, Sign of the Moon

“Jesus tells us we must leave the self altogether-yield it, deny it, refuse it, lose it. Thus only shall we save it.... The self is given us that we may sacrifice it. It is ours in order that we, like Christ, may have something to offer- not that we should torment it, but that we should deny it; not that we should cross it, but that we should abandon it utterly.”
― George MacDonald, Unspoken Sermons: Series I, II, III

“To deny oneself is to act no more from the standing ground of self.... No longing after the praise of men influence a single throb of the heart.
Right deeds, and not the judgment thereupon; true words, and not what reception they may have, shall be our concern.”
― George MacDonald, Unspoken Sermons: Series I, II, III

“That’s how it works, doesn’t it? We are saved by saving others.”
― Jonathan Auxier, Sweep: The Story of a Girl and Her Monster
