And so we plough along, as the fly said to the ox.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Poet

Joy, temperance, and repose, slam the door on the doctor's nose.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Poet

Sometimes we may learn more from a man's errors, than from his virtues.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Poet

Perseverance is a great element of success. If you only knock long enough and loud enough at the gate, you are sure to wake up somebody.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Poet

No Christian is abandoned at the moment of death. The angels are the ushers, and our passage to heaven is under their escort.

David Jeremiah Author

The higher orders [of angels] are presumed to be closer in their nature to God and to function in roles that serve God more directly than the lower orders, which tend to the administration of the physical universe and the service of humankind. Some orders are associated with particular divine qualities - Seraphim with Love, Cherubim with Wisdom, Thrones with Judgment.

Love is the salutation of the angel to the stars

Victor Hugo Poet

The spiritual man habitually makes eternity-judgments instead of time-judgments. By faith he rises above the tug of earth and the flow of time and learns to think and feel as one who has already left the world and gone to join the innumerable company of angels and the general assembly and Church of the First-born which are written in heaven. Such a man would rather be useful than famous and would rather serve than be served. And all this must be by the operation of the Holy Spirit within him. No man can become spiritual by himself. Only the free Spirit can make a man spiritual.

Aiden Wilson Tozer Author

Strenuous intellectual work and the study of God's Nature are the angels that will lead me through all the troubles of this life with consolation, strength, and uncompromising rigor.

Albert Einstein Theoretical Physicist

We are all fools blessed with the knowledge that certain events will come to pass no matter what path we take to get there. The wise ones follow their angels while they may.
