1701. It's Hard to Be an Atheist with Neighbors Like That

Matthew 9:35-38

Sermon

King Duncan

... lives. We may not consider ourselves wealthy, but in contrast to more than half of the world’s people we really are. It’s like the story of a vicar in England who went to visit one of the well‑off members of his congregation. It was winter and bitterly cold outside. The vicar was well wrapped up in a heavy overcoat. As the visit drew to a close, the vicar told the man that he wished to ask him something confidential. This caused the man to accompany the vicar outside. The man didn’t bother to put on ...

Those who cannot work with their hearts achieve but a hollow, half-hearted success that breeds bitterness all around.

Abdul Kalam

Truth, however bitter, can be accepted, and woven into a design for living.

Agatha Christie

There's a lot of bitterness, there's a lot of anger out there. We all have to work hard to heal those wounds.

Allen Boyd

The truth is that life is delicious, horrible, charming, frightful, sweet, bitter, and that is everything.

Anatole France

It is ironic that the one thing that all religions recognize as separating us from our creator, our very self-consciousness, is also the one thing that divides us from our fellow creatures. It was a bitter birthday present from evolution.

Annie Dillard

Failure is not sweet, but it need not be bitter.

Anonymous

The difficulties of life are intended to make us better, not bitter.

Anonymous

The roots of education are bitter, but the fruit is sweet.

Aristotle

Whenever one finds oneself inclined to bitterness, it is a sign of emotional failure.

Bertrand Russell

The weak are the most treacherous of us all. They come to the strong and drain them. They are bottomless. They are insatiable. They are always parched and always bitter. They are everyone's concern and like vampires they suck our life's blood.

Bette Davis

Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice; and be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God, for Christ's sake, has forgiven you.

Bible

The heart knows its own bitterness.

Bible

People can be more forgiving than you can imagine. But you have to forgive yourself. Let go of what's bitter and move on.

Bill Cosby

There is some self-interest behind every friendship. There is no friendship without self-interests. This is a bitter truth.

Chanakya

Disappointment is inevitable. But to become discouraged, there's a choice I make. God would never discourage me. He would always point me to himself to trust him. Therefore, my discouragement is from Satan. As you go through the emotions that we have, hostility is not from God, bitterness, unforgiveness, all of these are attacks from Satan.

Charles Stanley

We swallow greedily any lie that flatters us, but we sip only little by little at a truth we find bitter.

Denis Diderot

Let every one of us cultivate, in every word that issues from our mouth, absolute truth. I say cultivate, because to very few people – as may be noticed of most young children – does truth, this rigid, literal veracity, come by nature. To many, even who love it and prize it dearly in others, it comes only after the self-control, watchfulness, and bitter experience of years.

Dinah Maria Mulock Craik

Let us not be needlessly bitter; certain failures are sometimes fruitful.

E. M. Cioran

We are now at the point where we must decide whether we are to honour the concept of a plural society which gains strength through diversity, or whether we are to have bitter fragmentation that will result in perpetual tension and strife.

Earl Warren

Much misconstruction and bitterness are spared to him who thinks naturally upon what he owes to others, rather than on what he ought to expect from them.

Elizabeth de Meulan Guizot

Family quarrels are bitter things. They don't go according to any rules. They're not like aches or wounds, they're more like splits in the skin that won't heal because there's not enough material.

F. Scott Fitzgerald

A woman is not a whole woman without the experience of marriage. In the case of a bad marriage, you win if you lose. Of the two alternatives - bad marriage or none - I believe bad marriage would be better. It is a bitter experience and a high price to pay for fulfillment, but it is the better alternative.

Fannie Hurst

To expect too much is to have a sentimental view of life, and this is a softness that ends in bitterness.

Flannery O'Connor

Life is only a long and bitter suicide, and faith alone can transform this suicide into a sacrifice.

Franz Liszt
