Laura Brown famous quotes

Last updated: Sep 5, 2024

  • Never do today what you can do tomorrow. Something may occur to make you regret your premature action.

  • Television in the 1960s & 70s had just as much dross and the programmes were a lot more tediously patronising than they are now. Memory truncates occasional gems into a glittering skein of brilliance. More television, more channels means more good television and, of course, more bad. The same equation applies to publishing, film and, I expect, sumo wrestling.

  • God wants us to speak to men so that they will feel it, so that they will never forget it. God means every Christian to be effective, to make a difference in the actual records and results of Christian work. God put each of us here to be a power. There is not one of us but is an essential wheel of the machinery and can accomplish all that God calls us to.

  • One's mind has a way of making itself up in the background, and it suddenly becomes clear what one means to do.

  • The whole bible is the working out of the relationship between God and man. God is not a dictator barking out orders and demanding silent obedience. Were it so, there would be no relationship at all. No real relationship goes just one way. There are always two active parties. We must have reverence and awe for God, and honor for the chain of tradition. But that doesn't mean we can't use new information to help us read the holy texts in new ways.

  • The survival of democracy depends on the renunciation of violence and the development of nonviolent means to combat evil and advance the good.

  • We're not going to survive in this world, temporally or spiritually, without increased faith in the Lord-and I don't mean a positive mental attitude-I mean downright solid faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. That is the one thing that gives vitality and power to otherwise rather weak individuals.

  • All my life I have had a choice of hate and love. I chose love and I am here

  • We have to always hope in humanity that people will make the right choices.

  • Music is a current of hard choices made to seem easy by the mind.
