All I ask is to be held above the barren wastes of want.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Thou must be emptied of that wherewith thou art full, that thou mayest be filled with that whereof thou art empty.
Our necessities never equal our wants.
We can't have landfills forever, and we can't ask others to accept our trash.
None are so empty as those who are full of themselves.
To be full of things is to be empty of God. To be empty of things is to be full of God.
Give us the luxuries of life, and we will dispense with its necessaries.
We want a world where life is preserved, and the quality of life is enriched for everybody, not only for the privileged.
Beware the barrenness of a busy life.
The waste of plenty is the resource of scarcity.
Asking people for money is giving them the opportunity to put their resources at the disposal of the Kingdom.
