Thanks for the responses, everyone! I love quotes and am always finding ones I love. Here are the ones I have on my Facebook profile:



"A society grows great when men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in."

- Greek Proverb



"If my life is broken when given to Jesus, it is because the pieces will feed a multitude while a loaf will satisfy only a little lad."

- Ruth Stull



"People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw out anyone."

- Sam Levenson



"Those who thank God much are the truly wealthy. So our inner happiness depends not on what we experience but on the degree of our gratitude to God, whatever the experience."

- Albert Schweitzer



"The fish trap exists because of the fish. Once you've gotten the fish you can forget the trap. The rabbit snare exists because of the rabbit. Once you've gotten the rabbit, you can forget the snare. Words exist because of meaning. Once you've gotten the meaning, you can forget the words. Where can I find a man who has forgotten words so I can talk with him?"

- Chuang Tzu



"Alice came to a fork in the road. 'Which road do I take?' she asked.

'Where do you want to go?' responded the Cheshire cat.

'I don't know,' Alice answered.

'Then,' said the cat, 'it doesn't matter.'"

- Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland



"He who does not understand your silence will probably not understand your words."

- Elbert Hubbard



"If I am inconsiderate about the comfort of others, or their feelings, or even their little weaknesses; if I am careless about their little hurts and miss opportunities to smooth their way; if I make the sweet running of household wheels more difficult to accomplish, then I know nothing of Calvary love."

- Amy Carmichael



"Let us not love in words but let us love until it hurts. It hurt Jesus to love us: he died for us. And today it is your turn and my turn to love another as Jesus loved us. Do not be afraid to say yes to Jesus."

- Mother Teresa



"The most important part of our task will be to tell everyone who will listen that Jesus is the only answer to the problems that are disturbing the hearts of men and nations. We shall have the right to speak because we can tell from our experience that his light is more powerful than the deepest darkness... How wonderful that the reality of his presence is greater than the reality of the hell about us."

- Betsie ten Boom
