If the poets offered us nothing more than another make-believe world, they would be mere sellers of drugs or, at best, sweetmeats. - Robert Lynd
When the Bible itself becomes irksome, inquire whether you have not been spoiling your appetite by sweetmeats and renounce them; and believe that the Word is the wire along which the voice of God will certainly come to you if the heart is hushed and the attention fixed. - F.B. Meyer
