More quotes by George MacDonald
There is an aching that is worse than any pain.
George MacDonald
The greatest forces lie in the region of the uncomprehended.
George MacDonald
The Bible is to me the most precious thing in the world, because it tells me his story and what good men thought about him who knew him and accepted him.
George MacDonald
The more I work with the body, keeping my assumptions in a temporary state of reservation, the more I appreciate and sympathize with a given disease. The body no longer appears as a sick or irrational demon, but as a process with its own inner logic and wisdom.
George MacDonald
No, there is no escape. There is no heaven with a little of hell in it--no plan to retain this or that of the devil in our hearts or our pockets. Out Satan must go, every hair and feather!
George MacDonald
The Root of All Rebellion: It is because we are not near enough to Thee to partake of thy liberty that we want a liberty of our own different from thine.
George MacDonald
Anything big enough to occupy our minds is big enough to hang a prayer on.
George MacDonald
They will pressure you into doing things that may be unsafe, use your good judgment, and remember, 'I would rather be laughed at, than cried for.'
George MacDonald
The Lord never came to deliver men from the consequences of their sins while yet those sins remained...Yet men, loving their sins and feeling nothing of their dread hatefulness, have, consistent with their low condition, constantly taken this word concerning the Lord to mean that he came to save them from the punishment of their sins.
George MacDonald
When we are out of sympathy with the young, then I think our work in this world is over
George MacDonald
And so all growth that is not towards God Is growing to decay.
George MacDonald
No man can make haste to be rich without going against the will of God, in which case it is the one frightful thing to be successful.
George MacDonald
Nothing makes one feel so strong as a call for help.
George MacDonald
The purposes of God point to one simple end-that we should be as he is, think the same thoughts, mean the same things, possess the same blessedness.
George MacDonald
One thing is clear to me, that no indulgence of passion destroys the spiritual nature so much as respectable selfishness.
George MacDonald
There is no cheating in nature and the simple unsought feelings of the soul. There must be a truth involved in it, though we may but in part lay hold of the meaning.
George MacDonald
Where there is no choice, we do well to make no difficulty.
George MacDonald
When I can no more stir my soul to move, and life is but the ashes of a fire when I can but remember that my heart once used to live and love, long and aspire- O, be thou then the first, the one thou art be thou the calling, before all answering love, and in me wake hope, fear, boundless desire.
George MacDonald
Every truth must be accompanied by some corresponding act.
George MacDonald
Only he knew that to be left alone is not always to be forsaken.
George MacDonald
