Hannah Whitall Smith
“Remember, then, that the real thing in your experience is what your will decides, and not the verdict of your emotions; and that you are far more in danger of hypocrisy and untruth in yielding to the assertions of your feelings, than in holding fast to the decision of your will. So that, if your will is on God’s side, you are no hypocrite at this moment in claiming as your own the blessed reality of belonging altogether to Him, even though your emotions may all declare the contrary.”
Hannah Whitall Smith, The Christian's Secret to a Happy Life - Hannah Whitall Smith

Timothy J. Keller
“To be loved but not known is comforting but superficial. To be known and not loved is our greatest fear. But to be fully known and truly loved is, well, a lot like being loved by God. It is what we need more than anything. It liberates us from pretense, humbles us out of our self-righteousness, and fortifies us for any difficulty life can throw at us.”
Timothy Keller, The Meaning of Marriage: Facing the Complexities of Commitment with the Wisdom of God

“we can and must love the will of God in the trial, for His will is always sweet, whether it be in joy or in sorrow.”
Hannah Whitall Smith, The Christian's Secret to a Happy Life - Hannah Whitall Smith

Flannery O'Connor
“To know oneself is, above all, to know what one lacks. It is to measure oneself against Truth, and not the other way around. The first product of self-knowledge is humility . . .”
Flannery O'Connor, Mystery and Manners: Occasional Prose

Flannery O'Connor
“She looked at nice young men as if she could smell their stupidity.”
Flannery O'Connor
