May 28th.  No man can become a saint in his sleep; and to fulfil the condition required demands a certain amount of prayer and meditation and time, just as improvement in any direction, bodily or mental, requires preparation and care.  Address yourselves to that one thing; at any cost have this transcendent character exchanged for yours.  The Greatest Thing in the World, p. 60.

May 29th.  He who has taken his stand, who has drawn a boundary line, sharp and deep, about his religious life, who has marked off all beyond as for ever forbidden ground to him, finds the yoke easy and the burden light.  For this forbidden environment comes to be as if it were not.  His faculties falling out of correspondence, slowly lose their sensibilities.  And the balm of Death numbing his lower nature releases him for the scarce disturbed communion of a higher life.  So even here to die is gain.  Natural Law, Mortification, p. 199.

May 30th.  Remain side by side with Him who loved us, and gave Himself for us, and you too will become a permanent magnet, a permanently attractive force; and like Him you will draw all men unto you, like Him you will be drawn unto all men.  That is the inevitable effect of Love.  Any man who fulfils that cause must have that effect produced in him.  The Greatest Thing in the World, p. 45.

May 31st.  Try to give up the idea that religion comes to us by chance, or by mystery, or by caprice.  It comes to us by natural law, or by supernatural law, for all law is Divine.  The Greatest Thing in the World, p. 46.

June 1st.  We love others, we love everybody, we love our enemies, because He first loved us. . . .  And that is how the love of God melts down the unlovely heart in man, and begets in him the new creature, who is patient and humble and gentle and unselfish.  The Greatest Thing in the World, p. 46.

June 2d.  The belief in Science as an aid to faith is not yet ripe enough to warrant men in searching there for witnesses to the highest Christian truths.  The inspiration of Nature, it is thought, extends to the humbler doctrines alone.  And yet the reverent inquirer who guides his steps in the right direction may find even now, in the still dim twilight of the scientific world, much that will illuminate and intensify his sublimest faith.  Natural Law, Eternal Life, p. 204.

June 3d.  Life becomes fuller and fuller, richer and richer, more and more sensitive and responsive to an ever-widening Environment as we rise in the chain of being.  Natural Law, Eternal Life, p. 207.

June 4th.  Before we reach an Eternal Life we must pass beyond that point at which all ordinary correspondences inevitably cease.  We must find an organism so high and complex, that at some point in its development it shall have added a correspondence which organic death is powerless to arrest.  Natural Law, Eternal Life, p. 213.
