Quotes!

Ok, so many of you know that I'm obsessed with quotes and even have a book that I write down all quotes that strike me as interesting. Well, I came across a couple really good ones and thought I'd share. :)


"So that is the outline of the official story--the table of the time when God was the underdog and got beaten, when He submitted to the conditions he had laid down and became a man like the men he had made, and the men He had made broke Him and killed Him. This is the dogma we find so dull--this terrifying drama of which God is the victim and hero."
---Dorothy Sayers--


"To have the kind of faith that obeys God even when there is no attending feeling of conviction is to defuse one of the devil's most powerful tools. As Screwtape write to Wormword: "Our cause is never more in danger than when a human, no longer desiring, but still intending, to do our enemy's will, looks round upon a universe from which every trace of Him(God) seems to have vanished, and asks why he has been forsaken, and still obeys."
--C.S. Lewis--

"How intensely frustrating to believe that you're good enough to find your own way, only to stumble in the dark again and again."
--J.F. Baldwin"The Deadliest Monster"--

"Way to much coffee. But if it wasn't for the coffee, I'd have no identifiable personality whatsoever."
--David Letterman--

"Bacon and eggs: a day's work for a chicken, a lifetime commitment for a pig."
--Unknown--

"Our most strenuous efforts to be relevant is what makes us irrelevant."
--Dr. George Grant--

"We must diligently strive to make our young men decent, God-fearing, law-abiding, honor-loving, justice, able to hold their own in the hurly-burly or the world's work, abot to strive mightily that the forces of right may be in the end triumphant, and we must be ever vigilant in so telling them."
--Theodore Roosevelt--

"There are things, say in learning to swim or to climb, which look dangerous and aren't. Your instructor tells you it's safe. You have good reason from past experience to trust him. Perhaps you can even see for yourself, by your own reason, that it is safe. But the crucial questioning is, will you be able to go on believing this when you actually see the cliff edge below you or actually feel yourself unsupported in the water? You will have no rational grounds for disbelieving. It is your senses and your imagination that are going to attack belief."
--C.S. Lewis--

"Stange that phychics have to ask for your name."
--Unknown--
