If anyone were ever to look through my notebooks, he would find a lot of “SUs” there.” (Robert Caro, one of America’s greatest biographers)
“Retire from the world each day to some private spot, even if it be only the bedroom (for a while I retreated to the furnace room for want of a better place). Stay in the secret place till the surrounding noises begin to fade out of your heart. ... Give yourself to God and then be what and who you are without regard to what others think. ... Learn to pray inwardly every moment. ... Call home your roving thoughts. Gaze on Christ with the eyes of your soul…. All the above is contingent upon a right relation to God through Christ and daily meditation on the Scriptures. Lacking these, nothing will help us; granted, these the discipline recommended will go far to neutralize the evil effects of externalism and to make us acquainted with God and our own souls.” (A.W Tozer)
