Keep clear of psychiatrists unless you know that they are also Christians. Otherwise they start with the assumption that your religion is an illusion and try to 'cure' it: and this assumption they make not as professional psychologists but as amateur philosophers.

I haven't any language weak enough to depict the weakness of my spiritual life. If I weakened it enough it would cease to be language at all. As when you try to turn the gas-ring a little lower still, and it merely goes out.

If you simply try to tell the truth you will, nine times out of ten, be original without ever having noticed it.

Feelings, and feelings, and feelings. Let me try thinking instead.

You must not do, you must not even try to do, the will of the Father unless you are prepared to 'know of the doctrine'.

No man who values originality will ever be original. But try to tell the truth as you see it, try to do any bit of work as well as it can be done for the work's sake, and what men call originality will come unsought..

You never know what you can do until you try, and very few try unless they have to.
