If I correspond
with the world, I become worldly; if with God, I become Divine. Natural
Law, Death, p. 171.
April 21st. You can dwarf a soul just as you can dwarf a plant, by
depriving it of a full environment. Such a soul for a time may have a
"name to live." Its character may betray no sign of atrophy. But its very
virtue somehow has the pallor of a flower that is grown in darkness, or
as the herb which has never seen the sun, no fragrance breathes from its
spirit. Natural Law, p. 173.
April 22d. I shall pass through this world but once. Any good thing,
therefore, that I can do, or any kindness that I can show to any human
being, let me do it now. Let me not defer it or neglect it, for I shall
not pass this way again. The Greatest Thing in the World.
April 23d. There is no happiness in having and getting, but only in
giving . . . half the world is on the wrong scent in the pursuit of
happiness. The Greatest Thing in the World.
April 24th. No form of vice, not worldliness, not greed of gold, not
drunkenness itself, does more to un-Christianize society than evil
temper. The Greatest Thing in the World.
April 25th. How many prodigals are kept out of the Kingdom of God by the
unlovely character of those who profess to be inside! The Greatest Thing
in the World.
