LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

Every few months or so I like to share quotes that I have encountered in my reading and research that have been meaningful to me. I call them “Nuggets of Wisdom.”

 

“To get the job you want, master the one you have.”

—BARRY DILLER

 

“The poorest man I know is the man who has nothing but money.”

—JOHN D. ROCKEFELLER SR.

 

“The load is lighter when you choose to let go of non-essentials.”

—CHRIS HODGES

 

“You just have to be what most people aren’t; consistent, determined, and willing to work for it.”

—TOM BRADY

 

“Our sin is inexcusable but not, thank God, unforgivable.”

—C.S. LEWIS

 

“God is there to be discovered by those who want to find Him and remain hidden to those who chose to live without Him.”

—BLAISE PASCAL

 

“Humility is the framework within which all virtue lives.”

—DALLAS WILLARD

 

“We need to find God and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence.”

—MOTHER TERESA

 

“Keep investing in the habits and relationships that compound quietly, they’re often doing more for your future than today’s headlines ever will.”

—AUTHOR UNKNOWN

 

“Faith is when you praise God in the storm, you trust Him in the valley, and you follow Him in the dark.”

—CORRIE TEN BOOM
