More quotes by George MacDonald
She would wonder what had hurt her when she found her face wet with tears, and then would wonder how she could have been hurt without knowing it.
George MacDonald
In whatever man does without God, he must fail miserably, or succeed more miserably.
George MacDonald
Anything big enough to occupy our minds is big enough to hang a prayer on.
George MacDonald
A Baby Sermon- The lighting and thunder, they go and they come: But the stars and the stillness are always at home
George MacDonald
I find the doing of the will of God leaves me no time for disputing about his plans — I do not say for thinking about them.
George MacDonald
God is the God of the animals in a far lovelier way, I suspect, than many of us dare to think, but he will not be the God of a man by making a good beast of him.
George MacDonald
Alas! this time is never the time for self-denial, it is always the next time. Abstinence is so much more pleasant to contemplate upon the other side of indulgence.
George MacDonald
Do not measure God's mind by your own.
George MacDonald
Many a thief is a better man than many a clergyman, and miles nearer to the gate of the kingdom.
George MacDonald
If those who had set themselves to explain the various theories of Christianity had set themselves instead to do the will of the Master, how different the world would be now!
George MacDonald
Why should my love be powerless to help another?
George MacDonald
But more impressive than the facts and figures as to height, width, age, etc., are the entrancing beauty and tranquility that pervade the forest, the feelings of peace, awe and reverence that it inspires.
George MacDonald
In the midst of death we are in life. Life is the only reality what men call death is but a shadow.
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
Which of us is other than a secret to all but God!
George MacDonald
Her face was fair and pretty, with eyes like two bits of night sky, each with a star dissolved in the blue.
George MacDonald
It is not the cares of today, but the cares of tomorrow, that weigh a man down. For the needs of today we have corresponding strength given. For the morrow we are told to trust. It is not ours yet. It is when tomorrow's burden is added to the burden of today that the weight is more than a man can bear.
George MacDonald
Truth is truth, whether from the lips of Jesus or Balaam.
George MacDonald
Until a man has love, it is well he should have fear. So long as there are wild beasts about, it is better to be afraid than secure.
George MacDonald
A beast does not know that he is a beast, and the nearer a man gets to being a beast, the less he knows it.
George MacDonald
