Monday Quote

In considering what quote to post today, I decided to highlight Elizabeth Goudge. I'm not sure why she came to mind, but she did, so here are three of my favorites:

"They had fought and he had won, and upon the victor there lies always the obligation for the future welfare of the defeated." - Green Dolphin Street

"He did not believe in capricious fortune, but in a carefully woven pattern where every tightly stretched warp thread of pain laid the foundation for a woof thread of joy." - Gentian Hill

"It's not the mark of a good patriot to hate the enemy. It's the mark of a patriot to love his country." - Gentian Hill
