Text Quotes
Man’s will and God’s grace rise and fall together  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) Spiritual achievement costs much, though never as much as it is worth  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) Towards my husband, I often fail to show interest in his affairs and amusements, not rousing myself to respond when I’m tired or concerned with other things, forgetting he is very patient with me.  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) Faith is not a refuge from reality. It is a demand that we face reality ... The true subject matter of religion is not our own little souls, but the Eternal God and His whole mysterious purpose, and our solemn responsibility to Him.  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) In my relations with my father, which are difficult and where I’m often met by coolness and indifference, I am constantly tempted to be cold and indifferent. Yet I know that this is a test if I could take it rightly.  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) As the genuine religious impulse becomes dominant, adoration more and more takes charge. ‘I come to seek God because I need Him’, may be an adequate formula for prayer. ‘I come to adore His splendour, and fling myself and all that I have at His feet’, is the only possible formula for worship  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) When you let intution have its way with you, you open up new levels of the world. Such opening-up is the most practical of all activities  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) I have just been given a very engaging Persian kitten... and his opinion is that I have been given to him  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) God is always coming to you in the Sacrament of the Present Moment. Meet and receive Him there with gratitude in that sacrament  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) Religion, like beauty, cannot be experienced in cold blood  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) Your dreamer may do without a creed, but he always wants a ritual  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) Adoration is caring for God above all else  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) The business and method of mysticism is love  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) Sometimes I think the resurrection of the body, unless much improved in construction, a mistake!  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) It looks impossible until you do it, and then you find it is possible  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) For lack of attention a thousand forms of loveliness elude us every day  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) Delicate humor is the crowning virtue of the saints  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) Deliberately seek opportunities for kindness, sympathy, and patience  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) If we ask of the saints how they achieved spiritual effectiveness, they are only able to reply that, insofar as they did it themselves, they did it by love and prayer  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) As the social self can only be developed by contact with society, so the spiritual self can only be developed by contact with the spiritual world  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) Towards my husband, I often fail to show interest in his affairs and amusements, not rousing myself to respond when I’m tired or concerned with other things, forgetting he is very patient with me  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) In prayer the soul comes nearest the experience of absolute love: in belief it ascends by means of symbols towards absolute truth  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) The life of prayer is so great and various there is something in it for everyone. It is like a garden which grows everything, from alpines to potatoes  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) No metaphysician has yet shaken the ordinary individual’s belief in his own existence. The uncertainties only begin for most of us when we ask what else is  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) Love is creative. It does not flow along the easy paths, spending itself in the attractive. It cuts new channels, goes where it is needed  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) Spiritual reading is a regular, essential part of the life of prayer, and particularly is it the support of adoring prayer  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) All things are perceived in the light of charity, and hence under the aspect of beauty; for beauty is simply reality seen with the eyes of love  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) Every minute you are thinking of evil, you might have been thinking of good instead. Refuse to pander to a morbid interest in your own misdeeds. Pick yourself up, be sorry, shake yourself, and go on again  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) Never forget that the key to the situation lies in the will and not in the imagination  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes) God is acting on your soul all the time, whether you have spiritual sensations or not  (Evelyn Underhill Quotes)
