All That is Gold: Tolkien

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
-J.R.R. Tolkien, LOTR, Fellowship of the Ring

Make me Thy fuel: Amy Carmichael

"Give me the Love that leads the way.

Make me Thy fuel, Flame of God."
(Amy Carmichael)

Eternity is in the Process Now: Ashton

--Marvin J. Ashton, "The Time Is Now", Ensign, May 1975, 85

--Elder Claudio R. M. Costa, "Don't Leave for Tomorrow What You Can Do Today", October 2007 General Conference
