In our era, the road to holiness necessarily passes through the world of action.

Critics and Criticism

Praise those of your critics for whom nothing is up to standard.

Destiny

We are not permitted to choose the frame of our destiny. But what we put into it is ours.

Friends and Friendship

Friendship needs no words...

Loneliness

What makes loneliness an anguish is not that I have no one to share my burden, but this: I have only my own burden to bear.

Possibilities

Never measure the height of a mountain, until you have reached the top. Then you will see how low it was.

Purpose

Pray that your loneliness may spur you into finding something to live for, great enough to die for.

Self-talk

The more faithfully you listen to the voices within you, the better you will hear what is sounding outside.
