More quotes by John Henry Newman
There is such a thing as legitimate warfare: war has its laws there are things which may fairly be done, and things which may not be done.
John Henry Newman
God has created me to do Him some definite service He has committed some work to me which he has not committed to another, I have my mission ... He has not created me for naught ... If I am in sickness, my sickness may serve Him If I am in sorrow, my sorrow may serve Him. He does nothing in vain. He knows what He is about.
John Henry Newman

John Henry Newman

John Henry Newman
I will trust Him. Whatever, wherever I am, I can never be thrown away. If I am in sickness, my sickness may serve Him in perplexity, my perplexity may serve Him if I am in sorrow, my sorrow may serve Him. My sickness, or perplexity, or sorrow may be necessary causes of some great end, which is quite beyond us. He does nothing in vain.
John Henry Newman

John Henry Newman
Every breath of air and ray of light and heat, every beautiful prospect, is, as it were, the skirts of the (angel's) garments, the waving robes of those whose faces see God.
John Henry Newman
An academical system without the personal influence of teachers on pupils, is an arctic winter it will create an icebound, petrified, cast-iron University, and nothing else.
John Henry Newman
It is very difficult to get up resentment towards persons whom one has never seen.
John Henry Newman
We must make up our minds to be ignorant of much, if we would know anything.
John Henry Newman
When men understand what each other mean, they see, for the most part, that controversy is either superfluous or hopeless
