Bob Dylan quote #147 from Lyrics: 1962-2001

My grandfather was a duck trapperHe could do it with just dragnets and ropesMy grandmother could sew new dresses out of old clothI dont know if they had any dreams or hopesI had em once though I suppose to go alongWith all the ring-dancin Christmas carols on all of the Christmas evesI left all my dreams and hopesBuried under tobacco leaves

Teresa of Ávila quote #319 from The Life of Saint Teresa of Ávila by Herself

O infinite goodness of my God It is thus that I seem to see both myself and Thee. O Joy of the angels how I long when I think of this to be wholly consumed in love for Thee How true it is that Thou dost bear with those who cannot bear Thee to be with them Oh how good a Friend art Thou my Lord How Thou dost comfort us and suffer us and wait until our nature becomes more like Thine and meanwhile dost bear with it as it is Thou dost remember the times when we love Thee my Lord and when for a moment we repent Thou dost forget how we offended Thee. I have seen this clearly in my own life and I cannot conceive my Creator why the whole world does not strive to draw near to Thee in this intimate friendship. Those of us who are wicked and whose nature is not like Thine ought to draw near to Thee so that Thou mayest make them good. They should allow Thee to be with them for at least two hours each day even though they may not be with Thee but are perplexed as I was with a thousand worldly cares and thoughts. In exchange for the effort which it costs them to desire to be in such good company for Thou knowest Lord that at first this is as much as they can do and sometimes they can do no more at all Thou dost prevent the devils from assaulting them so that each day they are able to do them less harm and Thou givest them strength to conquer. Yea Life of all lives Thou slayest none of those that put their trust in Thee and desire Thee for their Friend rather dost Thou sustain their bodily life with greater health and give strength to their souls.

Duane Schor quote #104 from We Had A #Dream About You

I had a dream you stopped by the shop and helped us get more followers for Facebook and twitter. And then you showed up tomorrow and were like here and you threw 5000 likes on me and it felt like slugs. And smelled like fried chicken. I was so confused. I vomited a rainbow.

E.M. Bounds famous quote #443

What a study in importunity in earnestness in persistence promoted and propelled under conditions which would have disheartened any but a heroic constant soul. Jesus teaches that an answer to prayer is conditional upon the amount of faith that goes to the petition. To test this He delays the answer. the superficial pray-er subsides into silence when thteanswer is delayed. But eh man of prayer hangs on and on. The Lord recognizes and honors his faith and gives him a rich and abundant answer to His faith evidencing importunate prayer.
