1 " Most powerful of all powers in its holy insinuation is _being_. _To be_ is more powerful than even _to do_. Action _may_ be hypocrisy, but being is the thing itself, and is the parent of action. "
― George MacDonald , A Daughter's Devotion
2 " Love may, indeed, love the beloved when her beauty is lost: but not because it is lost. Love may forgive all infirmities and love still in spite of them: but Love cannot cease to will their removal. Love is more sensitive than hatred itself to every blemish in the beloved… Of all powers he forgives most, but he condones least: he is pleased with little, but demands all. "
― C.S. Lewis , The Problem of Pain
3 " After death something new begins, over which all powers of the world of death have no more might. "
― Dietrich Bonhoeffer
4 " Utility is the great idol of the age, to which all powers must do service and all talents swear allegiance. "
