“The Christian does not think God will love us because we are good, but that God will make us good because He loves us.”

“We are not necessarily doubting that God will do the best for us; we are wondering how painful the best will turn out to be.”

“If we find ourselves with a desire that nothing in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that we were made for another world.”

“I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.”
