“The only sensible way to regard the art life is that it is a privilege you are willing to pay for... You may cite honors and attentions and even money paid, but I would have you note that these were paid a long time after the creator had gone through his struggles.” WayMayLongArtLife IsPayAttentionStruggleGoneWillingHonorLong TimePaidRegardNotesRewardsPrivilegeCreatorSensibleCitingArt Life Book:The Art Spirit Source: The Art Spirit
“Let no one imagine that he will lose anything of human dignity by this voluntary sell-out of his all to his God. He does not by this degrade himself as a man; rather he finds his right place of high honor as one made in the image of his Creator. His deep disgrace lay in his moral derangement, his unnatural usurpation of the place of God. His honor will be proved by restoring again that stolen throne. In exalting God over all, he finds his own highest honor upheld.” MenHumansDoeMadeLosesMoralImagineHonorHighestDignitySellsLaysCreatorImagine ThatThronesStolenDiscipleshipDisgraceRight PlaceUnnaturalHuman DignityDegradeRestoringUsurpation Author:Aiden Wilson Tozer
“I don't know if God exists and I don't care. God's will and design for this temporal and spatial vastness, if any, is so patently, deliberately impenetrable that I doubt any mortal has a grasp on it. The very inexplicability of sad events like the tsunami, like the AIDS crisis or even like the cancer death of the father of one of my daughter's 2nd-grade classmates last week are, to me, reminders to focus on our obligations to one another, not to the infinite; to honor the creator, if any, by honoring creation itself and hoping that's good enough.” IfsKnowsEnoughCareLastsFatherDoubtFocusWeekEventsDesignCreationHonorDaughterInfiniteCrisisCancerCreatorDon't CareAidsGods WillObligationMortalsI Don't CareGradesMy DaughterGood EnoughRemindersGod ExistsVastnessTsunamiClassmatesSpatialCancer Death Author:Eric Zorn
“A Heavenly Master governs all the world as Sovereign of the universe. We are astonished at Him by reason of His perfection, we honor Him and fall down before Him because of His unlimited power. From blind physical necessity, which is always and everywhere the same, no variety adhering to time and place could evolve, and all variety of created objects which represent order and life in the universe could happen only by the willful reasoning of its original Creator, Whom I call the Lord God.” WorldReasonHappensOrderFallUniverseLordObjectsMastersHonorPerfectionOriginalsBlindCreatorVarietyEvolveReasoningHeavenlySovereignUnlimitedFalling DownUnlimited PowerLord God Author:Isaac Newton
“Paul taught that religions evolved because man did not honor the true God. Because of rebellion, they "exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form of the corruptible man and birds and four-footed animals and crawling creatures." One characteristic of idolatry is that it always confuses the creature with the creator.” MenFormAnimalFourTaughtHonorCreaturesGloryBirdCreatorCharacteristicsRebellionIdolatryCrawlingTrue God Author:Erwin W.

“Infuse your life with action. Don't wait for it to happen. Make it happen. Make your own future. Make your own hope. Make your own love.
