Quote of the Day

Addiction is a symptom of not growing up. I know people think it's a disease... If you have a brain tumor, if you have cancer, that's a disease. To say that an addiction is a disease is not fair to the real diseases of the world. - C. C. DeVille (1962)

Talking with a man is like trying to saddle a cow. You work like hell, but what's the point? -- Gladys Upham

Faith is not a refuge from reality. It is a demand that we face reality, with all its difficulties, opportunities, and implications. The true subject matter of religion is not our own little souls, but the Eternal God and His whole mysterious purpose, and our solemn responsibility to Him.... Evelyn Underhill (1875-1941), The School of Charity [1934]

I'm getting these quotes from http://www.christiansquoting.org.uk/ unless otherwise noted.
