gptkbp:notable_quote
|
“ You have made us for yourself, O Lord, and our hearts are restless until they rest in you.”
“ The mind commands the body and it obeys. The mind orders itself and meets resistance.”
“ What I am is yours; what I am not is not mine.”
“ I sought you outside myself and I did not find you there.”
“ I am a great sinner, but you are a great Savior.”
“ Late have I loved you, O Beauty ever ancient, ever new.”
“ I was in the world, and I was in the world, and I was in the world.”
“ The soul is a great mystery.”
“ To know you is to have life.”
“ You are closer to me than I am to myself.”
“ I have learned to love you, O Lord, and I have learned to love you.”
