GEORGE MACDONALD QUOTES

Those that hope little cannot grow much.

GEORGE MACDONALD, The Hope of the Gospel

When I can no more stir my soul to move,
And life is but the ashes of a fire;
When I can but remember that my heart
Once used to live and love, long and aspire--
Oh, be thou then the first, the one thou art;
Be thou the calling, before all answering love,
And in me wake hope, fear, boundless desire.
