• A menudo pienso que en el centro de mí hay una voz que al final se separó, una casa en mi corazón tan invadida con otras personas y su discurso, amigos a los que creía estar consagrada, personas cuyas vidas ahora simplemente puedo adivinar, que me da la impresión de que soy simplemente una colección de ellos, que todos ellos existían por sí mismos, pero que inadvertidamente me habían formado a mí, para luego desvanecerse. Pero, ¿qué: se debería haber esperado de mí que creara mi propio yo, de la nada, de la nada y solo?

• Much is now being said about evangelism; but before we get effective evangelism, we have to get effective evangelists. Evangelism is useless unless it is the work of one devoted to God, willing and glad to suffer all things for God, penetrated by the attractiveness of God. New machinery, adaptations and adjustments, are not the first need... but more devoted, adoring, sacrificial souls.
