"...[T]he Holy Spirit began to show me who I was by nature, what I was by nature and the judgment I was under by revealing my heart to myself. I began to see that I was totally depraved, utterly wicked, having no righteousness of my own, but that all my righteousness was but filthy rags in the sight of God and that I was unclean and had no natural goodness or merit of any kind."
--L. R. Shelton, Sr., "How and When God Saved a Baptist Preacher"

"God protect us from the efficient, go-getter businesswoman whose feminine instincts have been completely sterilized. Wherever women are functioning, whether in the home or in a job, they must remember that their chief function as women is a capacity for warm, understanding and charitable human relationships."
--Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970), U.S. journalist.
Out of These Roots, ch. 16 (1953).

"And who is so barbarous as not to understand that the foot of a man is nobler than his shoe, and his skin nobler than that of the sheep with which he is clothed, and not to be able to estimate the worth and degree of each thing accordingly?"
--Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475-1564)

"Appreciate an occasional mistake, for it may well become a path to discovery."

"How frail is the heart! How dim is human foresight! We behold the gilded bait of temptation, and know not until taught by experience, that the admission of one errour is but the introduction of calamity. One mistake imperceptibly leads to another -- but the consequences of the whole bursting suddenly on the devoted head of an unfortunate wanderer, becomes intolerable."
--William Hill Brown, in The Power of Sympathy (1789)

The tryals that those men do meet withal,
That are obedient to the Heavenly call,
Are manifold, and suited to the flesh,
And come, and come, and come again afresh;
That now, or some time else, we by them may
Be taken, overcome, and cast away.
Oh, let the Pilgrims, let the Pilgrims then,
Be vigilant, and quit themselves like men.
--John Bunyan (1628-1688), in The Pilgrim’s Progress

And ye that wont with greedy vaine desire
To reade my fault, and wondring at my flame,
To warme your selues at my wide sparckling fire,
Sith now that heat is quenched, quench my blame,
And in her ashes shrowd my dying shame:
For who my passed follies now pursewes,
Beginnes his owne, and my old fault renewes.
--Edmund Spenser (1552-1599),
from "An Hymne of Heavenly Love"
