Quote by Emily E.K. Murdoch

“I am worth more than any earldom. And I can see that I am not, not worth the happiness of thousands. I fell in love with Dr. Walsingham, but…but he is gone. I suggest you call upon Miss Blakemoor. I imagine she will wish to marry the Earl of Cheshire.”

“For most of us, the vast majority of what we do in life is not sexy. Our daily grind isn’t glamorous or newsworthy, it’s just making stuff out of steel. But faithful leaders don’t need things to glitter for their work to produce gladness. Faithful leaders find meaning in the mundane knowing that their faithfulness in their daily hard work pleases the Lord. They know that behind the simple things we do is an eternal mission, a purpose, and an impact worth our faithfulness.”

“What I call the haven, as you know, is the Cross. If it cannot be given me to deserve one day to share the Cross of Christ, at least may I share that of the good thief. Of all the beings other than Christ of whom the Gospel tells us, the good thief is by far the one I most envy. To have been at the side of Christ and in the same state during the crucifixion seems to me a far more enviable privilege than to be at the right hand of his glory.”
