"Music is at its best when it..." - Quote by Charles Spurgeon

“Grace does not choose a man and leave him as he is.”

“Humility is to make a right estimate of oneself. It is no humility for a man to think less of himself than he ought.”

“Our spiritual manhood in heaven will discard many things which we now count precious, as a full-grown man discards the treasures of his childhood.”

“Thy tongueMakes Welsh as sweet as ditties highly penn'd,Sung by a fair queen in a summer's bower,With ravishing division, to her lute.”

“Phyllis explained to him, trying to give of her deeper self, 'Don't you find it so beautiful, math? Like an endless sheet of gold chains, each link locked into the one before it, the theorems and functions, one thing making the next inevitable. It's music, hanging there in the middle of space, meaning nothing but itself, and so moving...'”

“No music plus Bad TV = Bad mood & no pages.”

“Tom appeared on the sidewalk with a bucket of whitewash and a long-handled brush. He surveyed the fence, and all gladness left him and a deep melancholy settled down upon his spirit. Thirty yards of board fence nine feet high. Life to him seemed hollow, and existence but a burden.”

“My melancholy is the most faithful sweetheart I have had.”

“Sweet recreation barred, what doth ensue but moody and dull melancholy, kinsman to grim and comfortless despair.”
